- Can anyone think of a reason I shouldn't use (plain white) DuPont Corian for HV insulators? (up to 15KV working) I have some Corian scrap on hand, and need to machine some insulating parts for my new

- My neighborhood? Where the deer and the antelope play... ;-) I can do the microwave test, though. I don't know if it will give me the answers I need for 60hz dielectric strength, but it will tell me

- My question is: What is your source for scrap Corian? I can't find a source. I have approached installers and they never have any. "It's too expensive to have scrap. We measure 5 times and then one m

- Every installer has scrap from sink cutouts unless they have a side business making cutting boards. Part of the problem is licensing. To get the material, one must be a certified installer. It's a cl

- I was thinking of using some of this material outside. How well does it hold up to UV and cold temps?? If round stock could be sourced I could manufacture beehive insulators for high power end fed an

- Has anyone tested the the white, Walmart cutting boards? They feel almost like teflon. After too much tomato stain, they get tossed in my direction, at various velocities. ___________________________

- If it's the plain white or buff variety it should hold up well. I design and machine a few lithophanes here and there and most of the smaller ones are attached to a Southern window so that the image
