EASY VACUUM FORMER - Chocolate NOKIA

Sorry but website with templates and plans is now down thanks to hackers and running costs.
In this video we make a cheap easy to use vacuum former that not only works well, but is quite quick to build. essentially this was made from scrap wood, a tube of silicone sealant and two screws, but it works really really well.
If you've ever thought about how to make a vacuum former, this build would be a good place to start.
Here's a link to Kipkays video on building a vacuum former, which was the first one I could find, so I'll give him some credit : Kipkay's vacuum forming video: • Weekend Project: Make ...

I was looking at vacuum formers so KZbin slipped me this video amidst some others I was actually searching for. And this is my favorite build so far! So dead simple. I love it when builds make a point to show how you can make it with household items and basic tools. Subbed!

[@Kremmen2001]

That's a brilliant little former. So simple, yet very effective. Love it!

[@ChemBioScripting]

This is the best video seen to build a vacuum former to thermoform PETG: nice, simple and efficient design! Thank You 🙌

[@j90s56]

No bullshit materials, screws or gadgets, straight to the point. Love it 👍

[@absorbedspoon3-805]

I'm gonna try to build that right now thanks for the idea 👍🏻

[@BrainfooTV]

Top man, it's great fun 👌

[@danielecheverry7052]

BrainfooTV the new king

[@Olabid]

wow, that's awesome and much cheaper than commercial vacuum formers. Thanks for the video.

[@BrainfooTV]

Glad you like it 👌

[@everyhaddock3342]

[@sleepyninjarin7971]

[@daniely.7749]

Back to another one of these awesome and creative video from my man

[@joseluisruiz3789]

This is awesome! I'm going to have to make one of these for a project I'm trying to accomplish. I think this will do the job. Thank you!

[@tjfSIM]

Excellent video, really clear and well presented! The only thing I would change is maybe use mdf pegboard rather than drilling the holes, but otherwise it looks brilliant.

[@horrorreviews452]

It actually works. Try it, it works!!!!! Good job man! You just earned a new sub!! Keep up the great work!!

[@danieldumbarton5054]

Bloody brilliant. Will be making one very soon.

[@clippet-hk]

Thanks for a clear succinct tutorial.👍🏼

[@samueljay9160]

Well done a brilliant video can't wait to try it tomorrow :D

[@juanaelizabethsotomayortej9178]

Super simple y funcional excelente trabajo amigo.

[@schelsullivan]

[@BrainfooTV]

Thanks man. Sometimes you have to build, to destroy :-) Don't forget to check out that email I sent you Schel and let me know what you think.

[@schelsullivan]

I'm totally onboard! I must have missed that last mail sorry!

[@jackreed7440]

This is so awesome!

Back at it again with another excellent video so cool 😎

[@BrainfooTV]

Thanks man. Nice to see you here 👍 I'll be using this former to build something really crazy. I just wanted you guys to know how it's made and used so we can move forward with cool projects together.

[@Adam.H.]

BrainfooTV I can't wait, you still don't cease to impress me ❤☺

Rough sanding the top surface sounds like a great idea. It probably provides paths, at least until the holes get sealed.

[@vicguevarab]

ESPECTACULAR!... I will do it right now... or early in the morning, i dont want distrub neighbors with noises.

[@vasili1207]

Yeah I dig your version ... Handy indeed

[@matthewdavidson8920]

i will make this over the weekend

[@kersleyjean3074]

Thank you so much!

[@jenny666barnish]

Great video

[@mafworkshop6175]

This is one of the best ones I’ve seen in terms of cost efficiency. Where do people traditionally buy the plastic for the molds? Online?

[@AwfullyFrosty]

Amazon XD

[@Waltkat]

In the US, there is a plastic supplier called TAP Plastic. They have walk-in stores all over the place. You can also go online and do a search.

[@Renato-qv2do]

Muito bom obrigado pela ideia. Parabéns pela criatividade

[@BrainfooTV]

Thanks brother ♥️

[@mdom8556]

thats awsome

[@heidiw.1809]

your vids are so dope! good job man! can you make more miniature weapons?!

[@BrainfooTV]

Yes, I will be making more mini weapons. I just like to vary my stuff, it keeps me interested

So when you're not fixings roofs. You are vacuum forming. I'd recognise your voice anywhere. 🤣🤣

Great Video Where do you get the plastic sheets and what type

[@szc1134]

Brilliant mate. Did I do that right, American over here.

[@dav5741]

happy cinco de may- oops wrong channel (noice video dough)

[@TheForeignCitizen]

Either I missed it or you didn't mention is, where did you get your plastic? I'm looking for clear PETE (in Europe).

[@LEO-xo9cz]

I don't see the link either.

[@DemeterPictures]

indeed would be nice if he told where he got the clear plastic

[@SexistAlexistv]

Can you still use the oven for food after putting the plastic in there?

[@ewanstewart3631]

very cool i liked the old Nokia mold very awsome i have been subscribed since you had 10k subscribers pls reply

[@designertjp-utube]

Great Video! Who wants to discuss the desired most efficient "depth" of the suck box to get the best Vacuum action going? On the small 12" x 12" inch vacuum form table I'm attempting to build, I already want to place the vacuum hose straight down under the table like a kitchen sink. Don't mind placing the vacuum form box up on stands or even wheels. My shop Vac (I plan 2 use with the vac-u-form) is a 1989 Genie 1.5 (horsepower?) 2" inch hose outlet model that still works fine.

[@khartwell6910]

Awesome video I plan on making one my self ,, measurements would be great

[@BrainfooTV]

Sorry I have no measurements to hand, I'd recommend basing the whole thing around A4 size

[@mikeg8609]

Why on earth are there SOOO many keyboard warriors / trolls on here? Anyone would think the ideas posted on here were licensed under copyright. If they were, we would have to pay to watch them... Anyway... Who cares who, why, how, this was one of the top hits in my search and it ticks the boxes. BrainfooTV it was good enough for me fella!

[@CircularDiagonal]

What power (HP) are you using for the vacuum process?

[@e13s14]

Dude ur channel is doing great I remember when I subscribe ur where at 76k subs

[@BrainfooTV]

Thanks for the support man, really appreciated

[@e13s14]

when ur channel is this great it's no problem

[@BrainfooTV]

It's the support from guys like you that build the channel and improve my videos, it would be really hard without your help.

[@e13s14]

can u try blowtorch vs caps shield?

[@e13s14]

BrainfooTV it might not work though since it's fiberglass

[@fabriziopandolfi1857]

Hello. Thank you for explanation. PS what diameter are the holes? Cheers

[@sachinpatilnsk]

NIce Bro

[@J-JACK]

Curious to know if the power rating of the vacuum matters when making a vacuum former or so long a vacuum seal is created when the heated plastic sheet is applied on the form is good enough?

[@GilbertFerrol]

What tool would you suggest for cutting and filing the molds ? Regards Gibby

[@sierracebrian]

Great! can you share what plastic is it, where to buy it? thank you

[@TatsAndGraphics]

What temperature do you heat the plastic at?

[@WalkRobotFilm]

great video but if youre using your oven ,shouldnt you not use it for food as well?

[@teeonhighhill8827]

That's what i was thinking

[@TheDvd3000]

You should be able to use a heatgun as well :)

[@sivajitalluri4162]

which material(sheet) used for making those...

[@gregmiller5907]

i wonder if this will pull down kydex or does it just work on thin plastic?

[@beksultandaniarov5685]

what is the plastic did you use? how thick?

[@Alexa1850]

thank you for the instructions. What kind of foil do you use?

[@familiatorrez5925]

Alexa1850 it’s not foil it’s plastic but I’m wondering the same. He didn’t even say what it’s called or where you can buy it.

[@fleaniswerkhardt4647]

What is the size limit you can take this to? I'd be interested in something that was about 600mm x 900mm. Is that feasible?

[@mdomauriciovaldebenito7198]

Hola sirve para utilizar plasticos mas gruesos y pvc? Saludos desde buenos aires argentina

[@joaofelix7400]

Hi! Where do you buy the plastic sheet?

[@windpedallerscyclingclub780]

Can i use any transparent sheet or is there any specified clear sheet for this purpose. Plz help me out?

[@SN1350]

could you use a peg board with holes already drilled in it instead of drilling all those holes in a sheet of plywood?

[@lnnys]

Can it be use for silicone rubber mold?

[@nsvaluto48328]

Can you use a peg board for the vacuum bed

[@iloveanime12341]

What kind of clips did you use?

[@DLStarbuck]

Does clear PETG turn white when over heated?

[@izziegirlvamp]

Omg I can not believe that he made that Omg

[@yangyedda8092]

That's great, but I'm lazy so I bought one on Amazon with a built-in vacuum pump. It's easy to use

[@ahhhsoapco.1446]

I can't find the link for the plastic, could you point me in the direction?

[@markfitzpatrick8030]

will this work with kydex?

[@jttech6834]

Cool but if you want a larger one use pegboard.

[@agustinperez8217]

Hi! Can I use PET instead of PETG?

[@oscargutierrez970]

What if I don't have an oven, would a heat gun work too?

[@massimoserra4787]

I'd like the simple and cheap way you realized this vacuum former. Wich kind of plastic sheet did you use and how thick was the plastic sheet? Thanks allot for you inspiration :D

[@BrainfooTV]

I have a link in the description bar and at the end of the video that takes you to the website

[@massimoserra4787]

Thank you so much for your quick response. Now I found the right link using your hint :D

Can I vacuum form a sheet of latex/vinyl fabric?

He got the plastic from buying a vacum forming machine lmao

[@vincenttan9774]

Hello brainfoo, what type of plastic sheets do you use? ( or what plastic usually people call it) thanks man!

[@BrainfooTV]

The best plastic I used were HIPS (most forgiving for beginners) : www.ebay.co.uk/itm/High-Impact-Polystyrene-Plastic-Sheets-Vacuum-Forming-1mm-x-457mm-x-305mm-PK10-/121444123655?var=&hash=item1c46a24407:m:mnyYUaQemdzvfA2qKhZI9iA A bit pricey, but got the best results by far. Once you get good, I'm sure you could use cheap ones easily

[@vincenttan9774]

and may i know what material is the cheap one? im trying to buy both so i can compare the result :)

[@A21A11A]

noice

[@jenny666barnish]

Hi there I'm definitely going to try and make this. I couldn't see the name of the plastic used though so could you let me know. Many thanks for making a complicated process nice and easy
