    Andrews machine is made by Formech and the latest version is called the 686. Run a google search for 'Formech' to buy.

    just a trick i figured out, get some small but somewhat powerful magnets. this way you can clamp sections that are not close enough to the edge to be clamped

    depends on the thickness of the plastic. If it will stop a BB at 400+ FPS it'll be good for airsoft. 400+ FPS is what a lot of Sniper Rifles run at..

  • @thaboivoss09
    @thaboivoss09 2 года назад

    I'm interested in vacuum molding myself since I feel like buying stuff for the molding compared to buying the armor online since it would save me a lot of money molding all sorts of stuff than buying it.

  • @kevingreenfield7468
    @kevingreenfield7468 5 лет назад

  • @Chisszaru
    @Chisszaru 9 лет назад

    It must be expensive especially if you lives in Sweden like me and I don't have much experience off making star wars helmets or armory.

    • @d4rkhound388
      @d4rkhound388 9 лет назад

      *UK* not sweden.

    • @Chisszaru
      @Chisszaru 9 лет назад

      But I am from Sweden and we in sweden do actually use very much vacuum.

    • @d4rkhound388
      @d4rkhound388 9 лет назад

      Volvo Racing They have Vacuum formers in every country..... Not just sweden.......

    • @Chisszaru
      @Chisszaru 9 лет назад

      Do know how much it costs do use things that has with vacuum in sweden, probably not cause it costs 10 000 swedish crowns to buy vacuum things + another 2000 to use it and sweden is the country there they use 300 000 tons of it every month.
