    The shop I'm talking with is still in the process of setting up their new waterjet, so we have a little more time to wait. Stay tuned!

    It's Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. It's a thermoplastic that has a long branch chain intermolecular structure, which gives it (among other things) excellent resistance to abrasion. It's main limitation is it's low temperature envelope, but we're not using it in >200deg F or <minus 100deg F temperatures either so that's not something you're going to be concerned with using @SMKYTXN's product.

    In certain forms/molecular structures, UHMW strength exceeds that of mild and most hardened steel.

    So in short, you can whack the crap out of it on a rock and have a scuff at most.

    Anywhere that requires the physical properties of UHMWPE, such as ballistic armor, ropes, chemically-resistant applications and containers, hip replacements, etc.

    And it is slippery. I have some on my table saw fence and have used it for sliding jigs and other shop uses. It machines similar to wood. Very versatile shit.

    Are you still making these? I can't find them on your site? Sorry if this is mentioned in the 21 pages somewhere.
