Thread: Vacuum forming skulls

Tweet

These are some skulls I made using a vacuum forming table I made. Here is the video. http://youtu.be/xCi1M_cgDt8

OK here are three of the skulls I made. Took me 15 min for what you see here.

These look great warpaint! Wallhangers, headstones skull walls....lots of ways to use these.
Anyone know what else you can also do ( make) with vacuum forms, hint hint?

FINALLY after all these years someone has made and used one of these! I tried long ago but could never seem to find all the required parts...mostly a heat source. I've since read other plans of using your oven but never got around to it. Can you post pics of your table and what kind of plastic do you use? I've read you can use everything from 2liter bottles to yardsale signs. Love how your skulls turned out!

I agree. I'd love to learn more about how to do this. Especially what material to use and where to buy it. This is the first time I heard that yard/garage sale signs could be used. I just seen a stack of garage sale signs on clearance at the local hardware store. Hmmmm.....

Those came out pretty bad ass!! I love them.

I love this! I am dying to know how to do this. I want to be able to create various props like this and paint them so they are lightweight.

I have a short video on the first post. But I will sit down tonight and show how I did it. I changed a few things that are not in the video.

That looks awesome! Can't wait to see the how-to.

Sorry....I only asked for pics because I'm on dial-up and it may or may not load in my lifetime
