Prepare both the inner and outer template for the planter. Here we’re using 3D prints, but you could also use wood or clay.
Take a Mayku Cast sheet from the pack.
Peel the protective film from the top of the sheet. Remember, you can put this into household recycling.
Place the sheet in the FormBox, and start to heat the plastic.
Place the outer template on the centre of the vacuum plate.
Watch the plastic as it ripples at the edges and begins to droop in the middle.
Form the template with the Mayku Cast Sheet.
Allow the mold to cool.
Add a small hole with a safety pin to make removing the template easier.
