MYOG Hydropel
I know there was a thread here on BPL about making one's own Hydropel, but I can't find it now. In any case, I've resolved to try it. I have 350 centipoise (pretty thick) dimethicone, p...

Dermizax
I don't have any first-hand experience with Dermizax, but I was interested in it as well, so I did some reading and made a lot of inquiries. The only Dermizax available at that time was the ori...

Mitts
I forgot to ask, did you do anything around the hole to prevent unraveling? I'd be afraid that the hole would get bigger over time. Glad to hear that they can still be used as sleeping socks...

UV LEDs
Roger, as a point of trivia, there are UVC leds, as I noted in my post above. Thorlabs and several other companies sell LEDs having emission peaks as low as 240nm. Also, we use 254nm radiation ...

UVB LED
Yes, I think the technology is not there yet. The wavelength would have to be in the 250-260nm range, which is shorter than most commercial UVB LEDs. Those that do emit at these wavelengths have ve...

Down
I think this could be done, but it would be a lot of work and it might require a couple of practice pads to get it right. It seems to me that you would have to remove and modify the valve, and make...

Altimeter, thermometer
David, I did consider the Brunton ADC Pro and other similar devices. I'm not really interested in wind speed, and I'd like to find something a little smaller if possible (watch-sized, ideal...

Clamping
Zach, I dispense the Hysol by pushing the glue out of each tube with a dowel marked with gradations so I can get the same amount out of each one, usually. If I only need a very small amount, I draw...
