    Just to be sure I didn’t miss something , I think you did say these blanks would go back in the oven , but you didn’t dwell on final part. I think the heat curing is an important part of the process. Your blanks look great. I have a pressure tank and pump on the way, so I’m looking forward to stabilizing some blanks.

    That's really interesting to see all of this Pam. I suppose the only downside to these tall slim chambers is that you cannot stabilise anything very big like a bowl blank like you could do in the chamber you have.
    Out of interest is there a shelf life or the amount of times you can use the various liquids you were using in the video for colouring or stabilising?

    • @mamabearssheshedtracykeato6941
      @mamabearssheshedtracykeato6941 6 років тому +2

      Paul Lockwood It truly can be used up until 6 months of mixing the two parts together. Cactus Juice does have a shelf life of 6 months, and can be used over and over until heat activated.

    • @Highlandboxes
      @Highlandboxes  6 років тому +1

      Thank you Paul yes this one is narrow i could fit a box blank in no bother yes would need the bigger one to do a small bowl, you can get bags for bigger projects i understand. Once activated the cactus juice lasts 8 to 12 months so you get a lot of use from one container as it can be used over and over. :-)

    Any idea what happens if a secret wood like ring I mean wood with the epoxy resin part is put in the stabilizing resin? Will the epoxy resin get a thin coating of the stabilizing resin? as seen in the secret wood's video, they had put the whole ring including the epoxy resin part.. I'd like to see a video from you like that..

      Make sure the wood is really dry also if the wood is really dense it won’t penetrate it. I dry my wood in oven overnight at about 80c once vacuumed and all bubbles gone leave to soak for a few days
