Hi guys,
I have been going over the archives here and really enjoy your input.
One thing that I have noticed is the variety of stabilizing mediums used; everything from ready-to-go Minwax Hardener to glue+water to acetone+fiberglass. It has really been a great read.
A couple of things that are sometimes missing from these post is (a) the exact recipe and methods you use (including immersion and drying times) and (b) where you get the materials you use.
Could some of you more experienced guys help out a newbie here? Any information you can give is appreciated, and the more detailed the better. I am just getting ready to stabilize my first batch in the next couple of weeks and look forward to your input. I would like to keep the cost down, and at ~$9.00 a pint the Minwax Hardener is seems a bit pricey. Again, any information is appreciated! Thanks!
