Vacuum Forming - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #42442 3 posts Started by ra65_22re
i was thinking of making a vacuum forming table to mold plastic into idk clear headlight lenses or something else. im wondering if anybody has tried this or has even used one before. i plan on making it sometime this week. so if anybody thinks this is a good or bad idea let me know.
im all for it man, that would be sweet, im trying to find a way to do carbon fiber molding, A guy up here i know owns a helicopter business and has a company from oklahoma do the carbon fiber for them, but it would be neat to beable to do it your self!.
