I have a Mattel Vac-u-form but need the sheets so I can use it again, I know there is a company that makes them, but I have lost any information I had. Any one know of them?
I have used some clear plastic I found on one of my kids report folders, it worked pretty good, but I’d prefer the stuff I don’t have to cut to fit.Thanks!

Don;
Is this the group you were dealing with before?
Hope this helps. Incidentally if you did want to cut them yourself. The required dimensions are 3" X 3 1/2" and .017 gauge plastic

Thanks Greg,
I hadn’t heard of the group you posted before.
I had dealt with a company/individual that advertised in FSM several months ago but lost the information.
And of course they were much less expensive than the e-Bay group. . .

I love a challenge, so I went back through the back issues on the shelf to find this.
In the March 2005 FSM page 16.
Vac-U-Form sheets - Pre-drilled plastic sheets to fit 1960’s Mattel vac-u-form. Sheets are available in white or clear plastic, from CALLARI MODELWORKS
Is this the company you were dealing with?

Yep that’s them!
([:I], More than a few months ago!)
I’ll check the back issues. . .I have them somewhere around here. . .
Thanks Greg!!

A guy in my club just gave me the contact info for Callari last week.
Callari Model Works

EDIT–I just emailed for price list and order form. Will post when I get them.
Oh Joy!
I’m doing the same after I send thisMark!
Thanks. . .I couldn’t find the March 2005 issue in my pit. . .

Here it is. I have not ordered from him yet but a memebr of my club has and he gave me a sheet of the clear to try. It comes with a protective film on both sides so when you are ready to use it, it will be nice and clean and scratch free.
