Hello -
Christ mentioned a vacuum forming instructable in this thread :
Alloy wheels + Metallic Tape = Aero Racing Disk
I think it is also relevant to this thread :
Plastics moon discs
I Googled and found this :
Vacuum Forming with your Kitchen Oven and Vacuum Cleaner
Here's the dude's website :
Vacuum Former Plans
For smooth racing disks, I am *guessing* that you don't even need the vacuum part, because the wheel cover shape is so uniform and simple. I think the only question is figuring out how thick you want the wheel cover to be.
But, for other things (like a side view mirror delete cover), the vacuum would become a must.
Question: Would I have to worry about "outgassing" (not exactly the right word) as the plastic heats up?
In any case, lotta possibilities here,
