Thank you. I'll definitely make note of this as a source for the glacier white!

I bandsaw .5 down to size, of course not everyone has a bandsaw that can do that. I have also tried planing it, works but is real slow and very messy.

Good idea on splitting the .5" down to .25". I've recently split some .25" into 0.125" (minus kerf of the bandsaw blade) for heat bending/thermo forming. It is a little tricky to get a perfectly consistent thickness at times, but I'm just doing small pieces for "artsy stuff" experiments so it's not at all critical.

Corian bends easily when heated properly.
A 225 oven/heat box does a fine job and once you have some practice a heat gun will do it.
Wear gloves!
