ok, some say the .060 is what was used in the films, but I\'ve also heard that it was .040, from Kane, that was used. Either way, there\'s no that much of a difference between the two. Like Bill said, they are flexible and durable.
The .090, which is what DMC uses, is an all around general thickness...sturdy yet flexible.
Now the .125, is a beast...I wouldn\'t recommed it, but I\'d say you could probably play a game of hockey with it. Acutal dimension is 1/8" Very cool stuff, and I was surprised I was able to get a good pull from it.
BTW - I use styrene instead of ABS, for hockey masks I just prefer the quality of the styrene...I use ABS for stormtooper armor.
Hope this helps...i\'ll get some pics later and see if they show the difference.
