I'm too cheap to buy a pressure cooker, and I must have just let them get too hot while they were in the pot I used.

How did you get them hotter than boiling water?

maybe he mistook some plasticine material for tyvek?

1) Plas⋅ti⋅cine
  /ˈplæstəˌsin/ Show Spelled Pronunciation [plas-tuh-seen] Show IPA
Trademark.
a brand name for a synthetic material used as a substitute for clay or wax in modeling.

2) The sentence should read 'maybe he mistook some OTHER plastic material for tyvek' if you knew tyvek was plastic.  The way you structured it says tyvek does not equal plastic, logic.

Next time be a bit more clear in your post and we wont have any confusion like this :laugh:

Forgive me for the sidetracking, back to the post.  I'd like to see some pics of the aftermath and the product you used, maybe it wasn't tyvek..never know :laugh:
