Hi Gents

I do not have any of this but I would like to learn and get involved in some of this " experiments". What can I do to get involved? I could use some stabilizing also.

I have done some stabilizing with thinned down marine spa varnish. That worked well. I have a vacuum pump that comes out of a printing machine. It is not all that strong but it works.
