Slow molding – Clipboard

A fun and simple product made from the sheet material is a clipboard.
Just make the sheet the right size and attach the clip.
I tried to riveting it. And that worked!
Easy peasy lemon squeezy 😀

Wow, I need to build a compression machine 😀 Unfortunately, I dont have the money or the space… back to square one
Hey Pim!,
Was wondering what kind of mold you used to make these flat sheets?
And, how do they hold up to machining? I noticed the edges were substantially cleaner on your finished product,looks like it was a clean cut– did you experience any warping of the material?
How long did the compression/cooling process take?
Thanks so much!

Dan3008 why not use the basic design and use a benchtop oven instead. downscaling wil be heaps cheaper. you will just loose out on build volume.
I made a mold from flat bars and a sheet of steel.
