For complex shapes you can place acrylic sheet in boiling water to soften the whole thing evenly and not have to hold it while heating, then drop the softened sheet over a mold that has the shape you want.

This is a great idea. I'm definitely using it.

best video of how to bend after watching many others. it is detailed, clear, comprehensive. tks.

russian lady, you are brilliant

Love the acrylic bending technique. I was making a clear miniature podium for a puppet music video and was going to cut all the pieces then glue them with the medium Hot Stuff glue. but after watching your video I think I will bend the sides and the front to hold the top angled piece after I glue it. Sounds good and might make a better miniature podium. Will show you the results in the future. Thanks for sharing...

this was so much more informative than I thought!! thank you for covering common mistakes

Simple and clear explanation and demonstrations. Thank you

Wow...you are amazing. So glad I found your channel. Keep up the incredible projects. Can't wait to see your next one.

Fantastic video! I'm thinking of using an acrylic piece to create an air conditioner deflector, and this will help a lot!

Try a hot air gun... no burns, no blackening, very little boiling. Also, always heat both sides.

Chris Locke heat guns kick out a substantial amount of directed heat, and they generally always have a High and Low setting. Do you have a recommended safe distance to avoid scorching?

@@GrizzG13 with patience, its more about the movement of the piece than amount of heat... you can't just hold a piece over the heat, yes, that'll scorch it in seconds. I evenly wave the line on the piece that I want to bend, over the stationary heat gun, flipping the piece over every 3 or 4 passes, and soon the piece will start to bend on its own in general along the intended bend line, and I know its soft enough to remove from heat and bend with tools (I use flange pliers, or for large pieces just two blocks of wood to bend pieces)

@@ChrisLocke1969 excellent. That's actually very helpful info. I'm starting a project that's going to require a lot of bent acrylic. My only real experience with heat guns and clear plastics before this has been from trying to recondition beat up head lights. I do believe you're right though. Patience is gonna be the most important factor

@@GrizzG13 if you're looking for perfectly square/tight angles, make yourself jigs as necessary. One other important tip... as soon as i have the shape i want, i spray the piece with water, and it locks in place instantly. Good luck with your projects! 👍

@@ChrisLocke1969 good to know! I was wondering if water would cause a stress differential and make the bend brittle or weak. I'll be sure to do that. Thanks for your help! 😁

So inspiring thank you so much for sharing!

New and unique always here. Thank you so much Madam

Thank you so much for this. Brilliant!

Luv how she says acrylic and she said it 1000x.

Very clear instructions. Thank you xx

Fantastic! This has given me the solution to a project I've been working on for some time!

That was awesome. Thank you for the demonstration. Have you ever tried to bend an enclosed circle with bends on both sides, ie. walls?

Thanks for a great video. What is the minimum bend radius achievable with 90° bends? Is 3-4mm achievable with 3mm thick acrylic? I want to make a tin foil roll holder to mount on the inside of a kitchen cupbard door. Space is a bit tight so debating whether to cut 4 pieces and glue them together or form the rectangle by starting with a long strip and putting 4 bends in it

Good and patient teacher. Very encouraging.

Loved this video! Totally inspired me for future projects

Thank you so much. Your video helped me completing my project neatly.

Omg!! You are talented!! Respect.

Great tutorial! Question, I want to bend thin acrylic (like 3-4mm) , should I warm that up just a bit, or just as long as the thicker one? Also, what is the heat 'curing' time, I mean how long can you wait with the bending, after heating?

Thank you! God bless you! and your DIY venture.

Superb video, extraordinary explainnation. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

I use a hot air rework station for my heat source, kind of like a heat gun but it can get much hotter. But there is a bunch of great info here, and I like how you use pieces of wood to act like a jig to make bends easier.

Amazing as usual

I was unable to bend Acrylic until I watched your video Thank you, I solved my problem

Very informative as it simple. Thank you

Awesome job

man i remember making my first tough project in school :D it was a S shaped vial? thingy holder and it was the toughest thing ever in metal class. now years later i wanna attempt it again. amazing video really handy and will try soon to see if im still good at it :)

I was searching for this so long 👋🏻🙉 thank you 😊

Fantastic video, thank you!

really very useful

Thank you 😊. It was good presentation

Thank you thank you so much for I gey new idea and concept to make new things of goods with acrylic with home basis project... Again thank you

This is amazing

That's pretty brilliant idea 👌 thanks mam and all the best👏🤝🏻

This gave me alot of ideas!

Nice one. Suggest if you first have base then fold it 90°perpendicular, then down at 45°then 2" above the bottom at the edge a final -1" 45,° facing up will give it hangibg. You can give a cut at the desired point for charger wire incert. My one question is hot water can't help instead of burner heating?

I subscribed for 2 reasons 1: Very informative and 2: I love your voice :o)

Teşekkürler bilgiler için. Ellerine sağlık.👏👏👏👍

I was browsing acrylic tubing and bends for inspiration on updating my pc water cooling build. Realized that she would be pro at doing custom loops lol.
