Now here's a bizarre question ..........

I'm intrigued! Look forward to seeing the results (to both the figures and the pans!)

im not too keen on the boiling part of it !

I will have to find something to practice on first ..... wish me luck !

When I did it I didn't have any problems with the pan itself, the hardest part for me was to keep the heat low enough to not warp the parts yet warm enough to insure good dye penetration. That's where the colander comes into play as it keeps the parts up off the bottom of the pan and away from the highest heat.

im scared now ! this is beginning to sound too much like cooking ( which im rubbish at !)

I manage to burn everything ! is there a microwave option ?

Speaking of boiling your parts...
has anyone tried to reposition arms/ legs of AF figures?

I have tried it with arms before but they always seem to return to their original position over time.

Another option would be to "cut and fill" ? which I have never tried ..... but have thought about.
