Being more cautious than some might expect from me.... :)
Wear safety specks, and keep a fire extinguisher to hand.
Both of my last Microwaves have on occasion sparked from the silver cardboard bit where the waves come out.
Not good with hot ethanol in there :lol:

Thank you guys for the input, Igreat reading material. I use a vaccum pot to inject resin into wood to make soft wood into hardwood in my other hobby. I am going to give it a go. They talk about needing temperature variance for this to work so I shall see
