SummaryThanks for the idea Gilles Pinault (https://www.thingiverse.com/gillespinault/designs).This is my laser cut and 3d printed (not recommend) vacuum forming design. The laser-cut files were designed to be cut on a 15/23 Laser cutter. I would not try to 3d print these because it is a lot of flat parts. Use anything that is easy to trap air and use glue or something to keep the air in the will work. Use a hose on a shop vac to suck down the heated plastic on the object. Make sure the objects are easy to suck air through like this bar (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3182100) or like this random bracket (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1478563/files).InstructionsMaterials ⚈ Laser Cutter or 3D Printer (LOTS OF PLASTIC)⚈ Acrylic or Wood for base material⚈ shop Vacuum⚈ Oven or heat gun⚈ hot glue⚈ hot glue gun⚈ some sort of plastic to form with Optional◼️ aerosol can◼️ cooling fan steps ⚠️WARNING- Hot plastics used➡️➡️➡️First, check over the files and make sure you can fit them on you
