Re: [TCML] Kinraide Coil Reproduction - Near Completion. Nearexhausted.

["Brian Foley" <ka1bbg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bakelite has to me molded under pressure, a typical connector 1/2 the
thickness of a brick too a 400 ton press to hold the mold shut and 200 tons
to inject the preheated powder or pellets into the mold, temperatures from
350 550 degrees F
and needs to be cooled in the mold or warpage can occur.
not usefull for the amature to mold bakelite. cul brian f.

Nearexhausted.


ah, thanks for clearing that one up for me.
ebonite is hard rubber and bakelite is phenolic.
Makes sense now.
btw, have you have seen phenolic casting kits around, just curious?
