No attachments here though, hence no viruses either. Send them to me, if you will, and I'll figure something. regards Doug I was thinking of using a large glass jar, but now I think about it I have an old electric frypan to heat the mix, control the temp, just need to work out a stirrer (maybe a small motor driving a pair of magnets, another pair of magnets in a piece of silicon tube to drop in the mix??

Stirrer idea sounds good but if its the shallow type of frypan I'm thinking of there is a high bottom area to volume ratio and posibility of unagitated spots at edges. regards, Paul Gobert.
