Default Williams FW14 mould for thermoforming

Hey guys,

I want to say "Hallo" to you all by showing you my newest creation:

Today I've finished the thermoforming-mould of an Williams FW14. I found the original body from the early 90's in a small shop in Vienna. I did not want to waste this special body on the track so I made the following moulds, shown in the attachment.

I hope you guys like it.

Greetings
Stephan

It's a small professional machine from a shoemaker (he uses it to test the form of custom made shoes on the customer)
