Folding Jigs
The two mild steel folding Jigs below are used in cojunction with the strip heater.
The acrylic is heated on the strip heater. Whilst in a malleable state the acrylic is placed into the jigs.
When the plastic is cooled it will retain its new shape and the marking out lines (in felt tipped pens) can be cleaned off.
