Default Vacum forming

Would any forum members consider forming two bubble windows for a CH-46 project I have going. I can make the plug. It would be about 1'X1'X3/4!QUOT!
See the side window in photo. Of course I would pay time and materials. Thanks.

I know there are several companies that make custom
canopies for aircraft. Have you considered one of those.
I'm sure they charge dearly for their sevices, but they
know what they are doing. Let me know if you need
a contact. A friend lost his Pitts S2C canopy on a
take off roll, & had to have one made.
Let me know & good luck!
