Hi John,

        It sounds like you could make Westy outlet covers with this
machine ---- which would be great.  All of my covers had their flaps
ripped off by vandals and I've been trying to find something that would
work without costing the arm and a leg that the OEM covers cost. The other
thing is that the OEM one's are all outlet specific when, IMHO, all you
really is a generic cover with a flap that would fit all the holes. I'll
take the first ones that you make:-)

Cheers,
Doug

        Subject:        Vacuum forming

It seems I have come into possession of a big vacuum forming machine
that can handle materials to 1/4 inch thick, and can vacuum forms 24"
wide, 36 " long, 2 " deep.

If anyone has any ideas of things to use or produce with this machine,
particularly things for Vanagon based vehicles, I would  like to hear
from you.

Thanks,

John Rodgers
