Think of aircraft cockpits - round and smooth - that's what this toy machine (and that's what it is) can produce. Piles of lumber - allright if you want a rounded off pile that might and might not look like lumber. <br /> <br />Vacuuforming is for making parts and shapes in the general shape of what you want, not for replicating fine details on anything. The heat formed plastic is just too thick and coarse. <br /> <br />I'm sure there are other uses in model railroading though. <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau
