Cool, Thanks for the input. From what I've heard, many of the
problems with amateur PC are under-curing. I usually pre-heat parts,
coat, and let them go for at least 20 minutes. But I'm just using an
old in-wall kitchen oven I scored for $40, with a $3 grocery store
thermometer. I thought I was erring on the "over curing" side. But
I really need to get a good laser (misnomer actually -- "non
contact") thermometer to monitor stuff.
