Does the T-shirt press help take creases out of the paper?

I've tried several ways to germ old seeds, it can be a difficult task. Recently I wrote down a method used by a seed company, if I could find it, it might have some merit to it.

Yes sir, I use the press for heat but the paper goes into a humidity chamber first. After a certain amount of time the paper becomes pliable. I put the book between two metal plates and cook it in the press until I feel it's the best it can be. It removes spine roll, wrinkles, wavy paper, etc.

I can also use the press to remove foxing, and stains by using a light and chemical process. I learned a lot from this book. Books are good

I watch a TV show called the Repair Shop and they have conservationists who do repairs and I've seen the one lady doing what your referring to on books and documents. Knowledge is a wonderful thing.

i love to read and collect books
there is just something about paper that makes it special
i actually know "book arts" and can make the covers, sew pages together and bind spines with glue
i just like books

not to side track but right now im reading" an embarrassment of mangoes
a fun travel story about a couple who sail south and have adventures while living on a boat
/and it has recipes !

 

[Jenn]

^^^^^ I read a lot also. King Books in Detroit is my favorite used book store to hit up. It was an old glove factory turned into a big ol book store -

Several floors, cold in there during the winter though, heat doesn't get turned up much.

Reading is a great past time whether for knowledge or entertainment, I couldn't imagine a world without books.
Can't say I know anyone who decided to learn "book arts" good on you.
Books and gardening started early in my life.

I love surprises from people and their interests.

Hey Lester

I dunno yet, the Chem cuts are looking pretty good, but they didn't travel. I'm still holding out hopes for the rest. Saturday will be two weeks. I only need one of each.

Night all

Good morning folks, crazy thunder and lighting through the night here. Going to be too soggy to turn soil today. Little early for the eyes to endure HPS so deciding which jar to open with coffee.


I'm new here, and this thread is the main thing that made me actually want to get out of lurk mode. Never been on a message board, do no social media. Busy with life, no interest drama and controversy.
Love my family, growing plants and live music. That's my happy place.
This site has actually given me information that was priceless. The people who do and have shared here is overwhelming. Thank you all. Now back to reading Lester's seed cracking thread, I've got some that have failed every attempt and are not getting any younger.

And got it Lester, Guinness

 

[D. B. Doober]

Coming September 12th in theaters
Stephen King "The Long Walk"

Morning Doober

Did you get your sleeve of snuff?

I haven't been to the movies since 2003. I saw a remake of one of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, haven't returned since.

Welcome to the thread!

We all share the same loves as you! Glad to see you post and looking forward to reading more.

It is already 60 here today. Long list of chores. Yeehaw!

 

[Lester Beans]

I have 50 or so dead Ash trees on my property. Straight younger trees at around a 4-5" caliper. They have to come down and also I need fence posts. Also will build the new produce stand out of them. I can't get back there with the tractor to haul them yet due to wet but I may cut them. So much to do, so little energy out of my old ass lol

Also the collar on the driveshaft of the tiller broke. Fixing that.

Coffee and smoke break. Roasting up some Colombian coffee and Lemon Mintz herbs.

Any of you guys watch the F1 show Drive To Survive on Netflix? Season 7 just came out and we watched the first two episodes. Such a well done show. I'm fortunate my wife loves racing as much as me.

 

[Jenn]

Alright going to head out, stuff to do.

I never got into car racing, but my dad LOVES NHRA. He talks to me about it, but I don't know what the hell he is talking about. He is still tore up about John Force getting injured.

First stop John Deere store, time to get the tune up kit. Catch you guys later.

 

[Lester Beans]

That wreck would have killed anyone but Mr Force. He will be back. He is one of the most down to Earth truly wonderful people on the planet.

I held a IHRA license but have never raced a NHRA event. Those days are long gone but I'd love to do some kind of racing still. Possibly some SCCA racing or some drags with the 8-9 sec boys on Friday nights. A lot of money though. If you want to make a small fortune in racing, start with a big one. Lol

Good morning folks, crazy thunder and lighting through the night here.

Our dog woke us up howling and barking around 1 am. He is not a fan of thunder. I had to shift to the couch downstairs to keep him company . . .

Welcome to the thread, Quietman!

 

[flower~power]

Good morning everyoneI can relate to the thunder and the rain being woken up this morning also I have hundreds of dead/dying ash on the farm property & been thinking about what the hell am I gonna do with them
