I took a tour of the Associated factory in 1992, and they converted an old refrigerator as they Lexan oven. Really cool to see the sheets form so quickly.

That would be fun to see a video of someone pulling sheets out of a hot refrigerator.

I'm not sure what types of molds you pre-heat, but I would suggest you use stone. A thin slab of marble, sandstone, soapstone, etc will heat up and retain the heat, emanating radiant heat into your mold structure. All the best

Soooooo... what temp do you dry PC and how long do you run at that temp (per thickness)?

We are usually around 104C for 10 - 30 minutes depending on humidity. Sometimes when really hot and humid we go up to 110C but then the masking starts to get really sticky and may stick to the oven or other sheets. So we try not to do that if we can. But for some reason on the hot summer days we sometimes have to go hotter. Not sure why. Of course I should say I am not sure this temp is accurate. We have never checked the calibration in the temp probe. When this oven was in lab I bet they had to check it often.

Crazy how every now and then I find a KZfaq video from a fellow Midwesterner I'm from across the river but I've done all sorts of work all over Minnesota
