Lots of ideas to think about i'll probably try a couple and see what works for me.

BTW, I saw the question but don't remember where...I heated my foundation in the oven to 170 before I painted it with wax this morning and it did not warp or melt.

I honesty have not been keeping up with this topic very closely, realizing I might have missed something earlier.
So I will ask without making assumptions; Are you saying you read 'the question' somewhere else, and have 'now' tired this for yourself? Or, have you simply read this somewhere else and now your making the statement for discussion?

RFA, If you have tried this for yourself, I'm interested...   :grin:

I read the question here, somewhere and tried it myself. 170 is the lowest setting my oven will go and I warmed the foundations up before painting with wax. I didn?t leave them in there all day but they were warm enough that the wax didn?t set up on contact. Eventually, I will make a container for frames and see what happens with a long bake with bad comb.
