Re: Baking Question



Baking on styrofoam??? NEVER.  Styrofoam is totally toxic, and not meant for
the oven!
I don't know what a silpak sheet is, but if youcan bake cookies on it, you can
probably bake/cure your PC on it, too.  I use a cookie sheet lined with
parchment/baking paper.  You can use fiberfill to cradle your figures on the
sheet as well... this helps keep thinner parts from sagging.
Unless you've got a really big toaster over, I wouldn't recommend one for
figures....  they'd get to close to the heating element, and that's a no-no. 
Also, they tend to have temp surges and aren't as even-tempered (pun intended
:) as a regular oven, IMO.
Hope that helps.
