    Bought one of these a few years ago and works great. Most may not, but it helps my aches and pains. RJF Looked up the site and they have an add-on since I bought. https://www.mixkwik.com/

    Looked several years ago and found the pneumatic shakers had poor ratings. Maybe they have improved them. RJF

    1 minute epoxy? That's a new one for me. Quickest I've seen is 5 min with max strength in 24 hours which works well. For large projects, I like cabinet I use wood glue and clamps. Now to ver the topic. You mentioned putting it in a paint shaker. I've go various physical problems and solve many problems with power type tools. For paint, stain, I've grabbed cans and driven to a store and had them shake it again. Looked at paint shakers for quart, gallon cans and they seem expensive. Do you have a source that has decent prices? RJF

    OK let me get this straight. Bake for 3 hours in a 250 degree oven. Do you brush on a sauce before you put it in or during baking? and what side of wood do you serve on the side? Have a recommendation of a wine that would go with this? RJF

    When I worked factories, I wondered if OSHA did anything. When the plastic bottles came off the blow molding machine they were blown up a wire cage system to the ceiling of the factory. The cage arched and fed a trimmer that cut the top off. Many times the bottles stuck at the top of the cage. One guy would always step of each fork of the fork lift and was lifted up to pull the bottles apart. Did this the whole summer I worked there. Heard he fell from the top and hit the concrete floor and is a quadriplegic. Not once was he stopped or did they think maybe this wasn't smart. RJF

    Spent a summer working in a plastic blow molding factory. We had wooden dowels, when the plastic bottles stuck in the mold we used the dowel to pry them out before the molds snapped shut for the next cycle. High tech stuff. The machines extruded a hollow hot plastic tube that the molds snapped shut on and blew up in the bottle shaped mold. When guys got bored they would stick the dowels in the hot plastic, spin it and make odd shaped handles, whatever that stuck to the dowel. We made bottles for baby wipes. I would imagine any bottle with enough heat applied would go back to a plastic goo. We took the reject bottles, ground them which was fed back to the plastic machine for reuse. So the plastic is reusable. RJF

    Is this how warped minds work? RJF

    Reminds me of kits that had a plastic. Draw on it, toss it in the oven and it shrunk. Think it was called Shrinky Dink. RJF

    Just an added thought that came to mind when you wrote of backup. Do a walk through your apartment, house and video everything with a 360 picture of every room. Any valuables, have someone turn them to their model tags, and video those. Store multiple copies outside of you place. If there is a fire, flood, tornado, you have a complete inventory of everything in your place for the insurance company. RJF

    Its amazing how much information people post on social websites. They will post almost everything except their SSN and I wonder is a few haven't shared that too. Watched crime shows that show the police using social networks to gather information on suspects. RJF

    Its a pure moisture problem. With them cut thinner and absorbing moisture they are going to warp fast. RJF

    Stack them like he does inside your place and put a piece of wood on it, instant side table till you use them. RJF

    Young whipper snapers steal mail, hack phones and computers. Trash is easy, but someone has to diig through it out on the curb in sight of everyone. If its bagged, they grab the whole bag. RJF

    Some commercial shops has special cans for these rags because of the flammability. Seen various home recommendations like taking them outside spread out separately to dry. OR dumping them in a bucket of water which has to be empties and disposed. RJF

    Notice shelf liner has been recommended and I've see different projects that were either successful or had problems. i have not seen any brand name of any shelf paper. Its written as if shelf paper has one type adhesive or paper. I suspect the brand shelf paper may have something to do with how well it works. Almost everything has a cheaply made product and more expensive product with results in between. Grades of wood, hardware, cars, masking tape,blades, whatever. I suspect if people were to give the brands, suppliers there would be a more consistent outcome of the projects. RJF
