Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] is this ok



Hi Scott. Anneal is basically a heat treatment after cutting, grinding, polishing that relieves the stresses on the material. It also has a slight shrinking effect on the plexi. It's a process where the finished disk/dome is heated slowly to 325 degrees ( I think ) and held there, then cooled slowly ( many hours ) using a computer controlled oven. Not something an amateur can do easily, but is essential to produce a strong disk. Frank D.
