Hi guys! I need a little direction with my gauntlet project. I am currently using 1/8" Sintra and WoF templates to form gauntlets. After three sets of cut outs, I don't have a whole lot of progress to show. The issue I am having is getting the form of the upper sections correct and tight.
I've tried using a heat gun, oven (at temps between 200F-275F, and varying lengths) and simply cutting each edge and and try to use small pieces to "lego" them together versus the heat "forming."
With each method I am either getting terrible warping (with heat) or disproportionate pieces that don't seem to fit together.
Any help with details on how to form this stuff with better results would be greatly appreciated!
