Acrylic Vase Progress 2

On Friday morning I went into the shop in order to work a new technique for my vase.  I used the heat bender that is the long metal rod.  I took a fresh piece of 1/8" acrylic and bent two angles into the 12"x 24" piece.  These two edges form the bottom shape of my vase.  I continued to use this machine in attempts to bend the sides in to create a well for the water to stay in the vase.  I could not evenly heat the essential pieces to melt so on Monday I plan I using the vacuum form again.  The intense heat will hopefully help me create the ideal shape for my vase.
