I have gone from a note in my book ".... oil bath? or sand?"
to considering the chemical reactivity of bath oil and RBF contents
and finally, crucially, the thermal capacity of the bath (oil or sand).
So,
thank you all for helping me to make the safer choice,
and
I hope that none of us makes a mistake similar to the one that I could easily have made.
Admittedly I should have immediately come to this conclusion by myself,
but I did not so I'm glad that I asked here before proceeding. |
No one person can see every angle, I benefited from several industries worth of view point and 100's of individuals to thank for my accumulated
knowledge and even then I read how others have don things to see what I have missed for failed to even consider!
So I'm glad you asked! made me think
