tirapop Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I can't remember the thread (archtop maybe), but, the topic off molding a curved surface came up. I saw this over at the Makezine blog, the Roarockit system. It's set up for forming skateboard decks. Layers of veneer, an insulating foam mold, a vinyl bag, and a hand vacuum pump (like the vacuvin I have for sucking air out of wine bottles) can mold the veneer into interesting curves.

toddler68 Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 That is awesome! I have seen similar setups sold at Rockler and such, but if that thing can really do a compound surface like that... well I must invest in one. They're not even $60!!
