I've read all the thread and tutorials I can find on stabilizing wood and I had an idea. What about a pressure cooker? My mother used to have one that she made a killer meatloaf in. You would be able to form a good vacuum and a good pressure to suck and blow the stabilizing agent into the wood. I've kept the idea in the back of my mind in case I ever saw one at a yard sale or thrift store. Low and behold the new HF sale paper came in yesterday and they have one on sale. What do you think? Will it work? This will also allow you to heat the product as was mentioned in one tutorial. Please give me your thoughts.

Most of the stabilizers have keytone or something highly flamable in them , you run the risk of a flashfire .

just my 2 cents
 
I have tried it and it really didn't work that well. I even tried a pressure pot for spray painting. Now I just take the materials out of the mason jar that are under vacuum and let them dry.

I'm not talking about heating the pot just using it to hold the material and the stabilizing agent. I guess I will have to buy one and give it a try.

Indian George: why didn't it work? What did the pressure cooker do or not do that caused you to go to something else.

Hey Reid - the worse that could happen would be to get moms killer meatloaf recipe.

But I have to agree with IG, unless you are doing large amounts of scales the jar is really convenient.
