    Neoprene (wetsuit material)
    for my design technology final peace i wanted to use neoprene but i dont know what difference the thickness of the material makes, as i would prefer it to be as streachy as possible. so if anyone knows anything about the differences in thickness of neoprene that would be great
    thanks

    Surely a thick piece would be less stretchy but a better insulator?

    Why waste time making one, when you can get a flat + cool bag off ebay for about 20 quid
