prototype heat source for slumping 1/16" T acrylic sheet
prototype heat source for slumping 1/16" T acrylic sheet
(OP)
Has anyone ideas, experience or suggestions on building a simple mobile heat source (heat guns, IR heat lamps, etc.) to slump 1/16"T sheets (48"X72") of acrylic? Acrylic will be slumped over concave/twisted surface of a large sculpture. Don't have resources to build large oven, etc.
Assuming slump temp.of acrylic to be ~280 - 300 deg. F, what will heat time be for plastic to begin to slump?
