Is this really "Vacu-forming"? Doesn't the devise have to be sealed in order to have a vacuum? It seems to be just heating a piece of styrene (or whatever) and stretching it over a form - which can be done by hand. :wave_1:

This is the way all vacuum machines work...when the frame is seated, a vacuum is formed around the mold.
Did you actually watch the entire video carefully? :wave_1:
