Dear friends,

I am restoring an old boat. As you can see the front windows need to be formed / bent. The only window I have is the one pictured which was homemade and is awful. I have since stripped all the windows out and have the boat back to bare fibreglass.

Do you know of anyone who does perspex / acrylic forming, bending or shaping ? I don't think I can do this myself as local heating results in the mess pictured.

Many thanks for any advice
