I started makign them when I was 21. 38 now. Several of those years as my sole profession. They're made of Lang's Jet Acrylic, using a 3M dental putty to make the outer shell in a two-part mould, and drop-filling, fitting, and grinding to get the final shape.
I more or less retired several years ago, haven't done any for about seven years or so.
Durable enough to eat with, and even tear through a soda can, but I've never accidentally bit myself with them.

I've got one here that I found a few days ago that still fits. If I can find it again, and a soda can, I'll post a short video.
