[QUOTE="thomas james, post: 402, member: 4"] Air circulation, not heat, is what drys the moisture out of a pipe. Pipes contained in pipe cabinets don't recover as quickly. I have often thought of a "drying chamber' that would circulate air through the pipe. cksbak could rig up something and sell a ton of em if they were priced right. Even a small light, 25 watt, could add warmth and de-humidify things. I would think even a small fan placed in front of a rack of pipes would do wonders. The trick would be to provide a constant low level movement of air through the pipes. Warm dry air would help but any movement of air would do it. I bet this would eliminate many salt/alcohol baths. C'mon cksbak PSPR&R. I keep feeding you guys revealations and you keep :sleep: and :bounce: ! :clown: tj [/QUOTE]
