Looking into making a Vacuum former.
I found some pretty easy instructions on building one out of a boiler pan.
You can drill holes every 1" on like a cookie sheet, but I figure if the hose is in the middle of a shallow pan the strength of the suction on the outer holes will; suck :D
So I went looking for pans and found this one, but I'm not sure if the holes are to big or not. What do ya'll think?

I figured I could get someone to weld it together cut a circle in the bottom add a little hose adapter and have a decent looking vacuum forming setup.
