We haven't done this in a while.
As I celebrate a very rewarding Saturday with a little (not so) quiet time in the shop this evening, toiling away on the RV8, it occurred to me that I'm certainly not the only one to chuckle at myself for taking a few minutes to "reflow" the Boelube dust in the top of the stick back into a solid for continued use!
What is your method? Mine is the hot air reflow pencil. Very high temp, low flow. "Hot" tip, don't try to hit dust with a standard heat gun .
Build on!
(drilling a finger no longer counts. Every RV builder thinks that everyone you see on the street has a #40 hole in at least a finger or two.)
