By the way, I quite like vermiculite boards and sheets, because you can stick pins into them and Keep parts in place for soldering. Regards, Dennis.
Oh I know...believe me!

I almost ordered vermiculite this time, but I cheaped-out and got the magnesium blocks instead. I haven't decided on how best to build a heat cave, but I'm thinking of cutting them along the mid-line (halving them from 1.5" thickness to .75" thickness), which will give me 8 blocks to work with.
