Rubio Monocoat vs Odie's oil

[festal]

Anthony,

Be sure to get the funnel from Stop-Loss. Makes it idiot-proof to transfer to the bag...and I'm just the idiot to prove it.

A few days ago, I transferred some Osmo into a couple Stop-Loss bags.

Using the funnel, the first bag went great except it took a long time. A quick Google search got me to a trick that mentioned using the funnel as a bellow to assist in air transfer between bag and can.

I misunderstood the instructions and gently squeezed the bag. Big mistake! The small amount of air pressure blew the funnel off the bag.

Oops. It clearly wasn't as snug as the first bag due to the small amount of oil that dripped into the tip of the funnel.

I've seen other videos where people have used a hose clamp to secure the funnel. I might have to give that a try.

Check out this video.

I have some small collapsible silicon funnels I use for stuff like this that I bought cheap from Temu. Makes it easy to clean up with no waste.

Make a 5 sided box big enough to hold a full bag. (a regular box minus one side)
Make the missing side out of acrylic or something you can see through.

Make a hole in the top that the neck of the bag can fit through.
Might want to make a thin key with a U shaped notch that will prevent the bag from falling into the box.

Make a hole in the loose side that your vac hose can fit.

Secure the bag in the box, set the funnel into the neck of the bag, fill the funnel with product, bring the loose side with vac hose to the box (suction on lowest) and watch the product leap into the bag.

There's always Bloxygen too, if you don't want to transfer to a StopLoss Bag.

My Osmo settles out.  How well does it remix inside the StopLoss bag?  Or do I need to dump everytime I want to use it?

Should be able to just squish it around in the bag!
