If I remember right, posted a while back was a recipe for making a castable
insulation compound involving paraffin and polyethylene. Apparently one can
dissolve polyethylene shavings in hot paraffin and gain a quite servicable
castable plastic. I would think that this compund, when hot, would weld
polyethylene instantly. Comments?
