It's always in the back of my mind to do this scene from SBY 2199.

Re: What's a dental vacuum former?

From 2014, but here is Adam Savage's review of the 'dental' vacformer, on Tested.

Yes!! For two days I was left, as a broke gambler left wandering the desert outside of Vegas, not knowing whether to go for a stroll in nature or pick my nose. I shall fret no more!

I like Version 2 a lot better. Version 1 had too much going on, although height isn't a bad thing for effect. Perhaps more a squat tower rising up just a little above that?

Either way, nice work.
