My acrylic scrap builds

Doh, I forgot to take a picture of my acrylic bender. I'll do that tonight if I don't get home too late.

 

thanks that would be great.

 

you can bend acrylics by heating it up. but not to much because it will bubble and you will get black smoke stains. what I did was I held a lighter to the area I wanted to bend, but never kept the lighter in the same spot for more than a second I kept it moving back and forth. then when it was hot enough i bent it over the edge of a piece of wood. it worked great!

 

Sorry, I got home way late last night. The acrylic heater is a strip heater. It will evenly heat the line you want to bend without the fear of burning the piece you are working on. The only time I have bubbled and burned my acrylic is using my blowtorch to polish the edges. Either way, I'll make it a priority to take a pic tonight and give a little how to on it.

 

cool thanks
