nope. the smallest air leak would be the end of it. years ago when i first started working with a vacuum press, we tried all kinds of clever ways to save material/time/weight when making the forms. lost a few forms; gained a lot of respect for the force of the press. now i just make my forms as recommended. its still faster than male/female forms, and more forgiving in regards to laminate and veneer thickness. all in all even if i only use a form once, its still worth the effort compared to contact cement or straps or whatever rube goldberg i've come up with before.jason: Wouldn't leaving a closed form closed (not drilled) keep the : pressure inside it high enough to keep the bag from collapsing it?
