mjs Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 I was researching making tubes and read Bojon's posts on the topic. He suggested using a wooden stir stick,and to leave it in while heating. Does it make a difference? I have had wood yellow epoxy. Plastic won't be affected? While talking about Bojon... Did he ever write his e-book? I searched for it and haven't found it.

gone2long Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 The problem with wood is it can retain moisture causing bubbles in your plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 The problem with wood is it can retain moisture causing bubbles in your plastic. I never used wood as I heard this too. I just used a regular ol' butter knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSC Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Bojon never made a book but had an excellent cd/quick time and also some information in PDF format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassinfool Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 I use spoons I liberated from the kitchen drawer. I would love to get my hands on one of these DVDs. Rip it to my HDR and upload it to YouTube. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjs Posted April 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Would leaving a popsicle stick in while heating make it harder to burn the plastic? It sounded like he thought it was a very important detail and just wondering why. Looks like no one does it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Like I stated earlier, I use them but I don't know about the burn thing as I normally heat in 30-45 second bursts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
