This is a brief demonstration of how I make plastic canopies without a vacuum former. Please forgive the video quality. The Flycam One was strapped to my forehead…

Nice looking canopy! What material you used to make it?
it seems to be a good video,but I couldn't see quite a bit of it because of the parallax of your camera. please do one that shows more of the project which was often out of frame
Good job
That is a great and easy way of moulding canopies,I have a few canopies to make,going to use your idea, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Very relaxing video. Thanks
Nice method, although it would behoove you to build a stretching frame for the plastic sheets, allowing for an even pull all around the plug when you're pulling the sheet down 🙂
I may try this for my 1/33rd scalle F-16 Falcon cardstock model canopy.
Thanks for sharing your methods with us all 🙂
Awesome
I owe you for this upload! You've made it possible for me to finally understand how this is done! THANK YOU!
Hello again,
I forgot to ask what brand or the name is of the handheld angled tool you are using? Dremel's are great, but I also like what you're using.
Thanks for providing your method. I'm trying to make thin-wall replacement parts, dummy radial engine cover and cowl cover, for an Art-Tech F4U Corsair (yep, it's an oldie). I'm thinking I'll have to pour Durham Rock Hard Water Putty to create the mold plugs. Thanks again!
why don't you just cut tabs whilst cutting out canopy,saves messing with glue
Very interesting.
You are making clear canopies – not "cockpits." 🙂
Very nice, very simple. Thanks for sharing!
I'm going to try this technique using laminating sheets I have on hand.
The best plastic you can use r the clear windows in kids toys box worked wonders
can i use hair dryer :D?
