I have notebooks of ideas that i want to work on eventually, but one that keeps coming back to me. Thanks to www.tk560.com i have plans for a very good vacuum former. This is more of a tool than an actual art piece, but to do most of the stuff that i want to make could be done with this one tool. Plus Halloween is a great time of the year for me,  friends want costumes, i usually work on theater shows, and people want props. With this machine i could make all of those. For this project I am looking at spending around $250, and several weekends of work. Also the skills needed to complete this include carpentry, Electronic Wiring, and Welding. The welding will have to wait, the other two i should be able to do. Alternatively i could change the metal tubes with a hard wood that will not warp. The welded portion is to hold the plastic stable while it is moved from the heat to the vacuum.

This project is at the top of my list, so be looking forward to more from Master Effects.

I previously took some time off from creating, and focused on finding a job, the security of this job will allow me to work on more projects. Hopefully some new ideas to come soon.
