I adapted this method by shielding each side of the fold-line, then using my heatgun. Sides stayed firm while line was soft enough to fold 90deg. Remember to over-fold to allow for some springback. Thx for the video of how the Pros do it

I would love to have just one day with this badass machine. I want to bend a large acrylic sheet into a over ottoman coffee table. The sheet would have to be over two feet wide and close to 6ft long...lol. I'm not making some contraption at home to experiment with such a big piece.

1 how to bind/join transparent polycarbonate sheet to make a box? Will acrylic grade glue/polyfix can be used ? 2 How much thick sheet will be sufficient to withstand hot water upto 45 d celcius ?

Great video! I'm starting a project where I will need to bend polycarbonate (High Impact) sheet (20-40mm wide) in order to build a "portable base" for our product....which is light, easy to work with, high impact, anti corrosive, etc. Two (2) questions, if possible? 1- how thick are those sheets? 2- what type of resistance is being used? voltage/watts? Thanks for the upload!

Air bubbles are caused by moisture in the material or overheating.

Hi there, do you think you would be able to bend Multiwall polycarbonate using ye your machine. Say 10mm / 16mm - 4 wall PC?

I first thought same but realised that the principles were instructive and so I was able to adapt the process with a heatgun and some cement sheet cladding as heatshields. Just keep an open mind and you'll always find ways you can innovate from how the Pros do things.
