We need a fingers in the ears emoticon. Uh oh, Dave is going to send us to the sandbox if we don't watch out.

Topic- good containers for semps.

A more shallow container is better doncha think? Better to hear the soft gentle music?

Thanks for finding the gadget for me. Now in a few days I can use this little hummer and get to work even if the weather does not clear. Wonder if it creates fumes?

Bought it at Amazon Prime with no shipping and tax was the lowest price of all three choices.

Thanks for finding that. I tip my hat to you. I tip my hat to you.

I might have tried Michaels or Joannes and found it locally, or even gone over to Hobby Lobby, but
Amazon was a click and order and I did not have to put my shoes on.

It will release some fumes. Make sure you have good ventilation. Other than that, I read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for styrofoam and didn't see anything glaring going on there. Watching the video it seems like the styro rapidly solidifies as the cutter goes through. The lady said she had a fan on but I would prefer an open window with a reverse fan to direct fumes out, especially if one were spending a lot of time doing this. That's just my take on it. I spent the last three years of my career studying and writing up chemical safely protocols and they were very strict on safety measures; too strict for my taste!

I did not have to order anything else, Prime , is a one time charge and I get streaming videos and free books for my Kindle and other things free as well as shipping for normal delivery.5-7 days. I guess you could say I paid for the shipping already with the fee, but I order my genealogy books and other various and sundry items from them. I think I even get a small discount on each item shipped.

If it was not for the streaming video I would have skipped it but...... Since I do not have extended cable I justify the cost that way.

I think there should be a penalty of five acorns for subjecting you all to that. Greg already paid it to me... so we have 5 acorns in the penalty kitty box so far..
