- if you have any solder work to do after setting it tends to
contaminate and stop solder flow. so an alternative, and try not
to laugh, is play-do. thats right if you have kids you have
play-do.
- it doesn’t melt when it gets warm it hardens
- its easy to clean, ultrasonic and steam usually do it
- it also hardens after a brief period holding the stones secure
for hammer setting
Frank, Play-do is not the material that you are using. Play-Do
is plasticine, which melts below 230 degrees F. You may be using
some kind of polymer clay or that grey stuff that comes in the
eggs that you can take the ink off of newspapers with. With
Play-do, if you heat it up, it melts.
