What is amazing is that the wife agreed without a single objection. $163 with shipping to Cincinnati. Now to find a cheaper source for the plastic.

I am using a old Mattel vac machine from the 60's. Good for windows and small parts.

Nice all-in-one. That would work well for the guy wanting to make a glass for a car. For production though, it is too small. I do have need for one-off kinds of things though that the big one is a PITA to use for. Hmm...do I need more equipment?

Dan - not sure what prices you pay, but I get my plastic here: http://www.iplasticsupply.com/materials ... s-eastman/
