An assembly (10) for forming an object from a workpiece (40) by hot isostatic pressing, the assembly comprising: a flexible membrane (20) adapted to at least partially form an enclosure around the workpiece; and a former (30) for placement adjacent to the workpiece, the former being configured to form a surface (42) of the object. A method of forming an object from a workpiece (40) by hot isostatic pressing, the method comprising: placing the workpiece adjacent to a former (30) adapted to form a surface (42) of the object; and enclosing the workpiece in an enclosure at least partially formed by a flexible membrane (20). |
