This short guide explains the requirements for using vacuum cleaners to control wood dust in D&T facilities.

This guide gives advice about the process of sous vide cooking, using vacuum bags and hot water.

A thermoplastic sheet is clamped around its edges and heated. Some plastics must be pre-heated to dry them.

This is a stand for a mobile phone, made using flat sheet acrylic, cut using hand tools or a laser cutter, shaped using heat and the edges polished.

The sheet can be formed using a line bender or vacuum former, to achieve curves or folds.

Decoration can be applied, such as paint, stickers or other components.
