They're all the same - one Chinese factory is the OEM and the distributors slap some vaguely English sounding name on the device. I looked for Dental Vacuum Molding Forming Machine Vacuum Former on ebay and got these results

I've got an older version of one of these. It used to belong to Odds & Ordnance. Its nicknamed the blue darlec at home........
Simple to use and ideal for canopies and the like.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

You'd roll the dice, get a result, and then when you were sorting out the raw materials you'd spot something else in the stash you wanted to build more...
