"VPI/first-cousin paper" Under the felt, an excellent idea actually, one of the best offered here.
Not as if I "invented" it.
When I was younger and not yet grown as stoopid, I used to salvage bits of it. Then learnt it lost its kick. Frustrating, that!
Only late in life, when I had grown my stupidity to a more mature LEVEL, off the back of laziness.. did it cross my mind that the folks sending goods to me already wapped in bits of VCI/VPI didn't actually s**t the stuff as part of the goods.
They had to BUY it.
Lo and be HELL'ed it's just one more freakin'
commodity.
And you do NOT need a Blaster's permit to JF buy some.
So I did.
Roll stock. Pre-cuts.
There are MANY vendors. Online, even.
And I double bag my stash in big Zip-locks. So it doesn't loose it chemistry so fast.
Out of necessity rather than any sort of brilliance, I always DID use open weave elastomers or textile pads in the tool drawers. No glue, gravity is good enough,
Ones that I could easily cut, easily REMOVE, shoot with a preservative, clean fast.. outright replace. Divert for another tasking.
So the vapour walks right up though the porous material, hangs around at low-level,
does the job without being seen, in the way, ripped to shreds.. "etc."
And its is "sort of" trapped. In the closed drawers. Not"sealed" but not much of a wind, either. The less-often opened and used? The longer it hangs around. Sorta "self regulates"?
Annnnnnd ... I'm not wearing it in my gloves, shoes, nor undershorts to give rise to a skin rash or such, either. Negligible exposure to ME.
Enduring exposure to the metal.
Like I said.
A person has to get older and
stoopider before some of the more OBVIOUS s**t in a long life has time to trickle in!
Weird s**t, weirder the better, we ponder over. At high priority.
Obvious we MISS.
You'd have to know human nature?
