Please go back here if you haven’t read the first article. On this second part, I’m about to create the potting ingredients to pot my Lundahl choke. I have several experimental ingredients, so some of them might not be exposed in detail as the result is still beyond my imagination.
One of important thing that we have to remember is beware of the chemical and its effect. Some of this chemical could be dangerous if exposed with fire. The solution is to use temperature controlled electric stove or for a ‘poor man’s tools’ – I would prefer a simple double boiler. You can use candles (note the ‘s’, means you need more candles to reach your needed temperature) or you can use gas based stove. FYI, double boiler would be safer (if you can’t get a temperature controlled stove) as the temperature mostly would not exceed 100 degrees Celcius.
