Followed TLs SAB tek... Tyvek Vs. Typar Question
    #18819892 - 09/09/13 05:56 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

Hi,

I followed TranscendingLife's SAB tek (Tek Link)

I searched Kijiji for Tyvek (as I went to two hardware stores (paint suits) and 3 post offices and couldn't find a scrap!) and found someone with "Tyvek" for sale. It was house insulating/siding material for sure but it's called "Typar". The guy drove out to my place to drop it off, so I took it from him for half of what we decided on (as it was misrepresented)... Didn't want him to come for nothing.

1) Is this stuff suitable for the arms of my SAB or should I buy real tyvek online from a kite supplier?
2) What do you all think of the SAB ? Can you point out any obvious flaws before I start using this and wreck some jars?

Thanks!!!

B) Some pics of the SAB I made (Thanks to TLs tek)

Not sure about that stuff, Tyvek is a brand name by DuPont.

Tyvek sleeves can be found on ebay/amazon for like a dollar a pair....

I bought 10 pair a year ago and still have 8 brand new. I use 1 pair attached to the box and I wear a pair..

I also made my holes 18" apart on center....your look too close for comfort really, but that's just me...

Other than that it looks good...

Also, if the tub you are using is really big, you might find that the bottom of the box is warped, and when you place a jar in the middle of it the bottom compresses down, because of the thin plastic.

This will suck air in and out of the lid, fucking up your "still air" environment.

In this instance, you might find that using the box upside down on wet towel with no lid works better.

You get a tiny bit more floor space to work with, and the wet/bleach soaked towel creates a nice little gasket seal...it also catches the shit that falls and doesn't let it bounce back up....or this is what I like to think anyways lol.

Just a thought.

Make your holes shoulder width apart. This is the most natural position to be in while you work.

I don't attach sleeves to the box.
