Myth or truth?

(1/5) > >>

Swivel:
Just came to me... I remember when I was a kid and there was this rumour that went round that if your skyway was buckled then you could wack it in the freezer to straighten it. Is that totally bollox or not? LMK  ;)

JT71:
Bollox

oh and them coded stereos, they can be sorted by chucking em in the freezer too

and an Ebay ad this week for a Burner with a buckled mag said it could be straightened by putting it in the oven.  :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

YGT:
actually its a true myth since skyways mere made from a dupont plastic.
by changing the core temp the plastic reverts to its original moulding shape.

same as if you heat up a yogurt pot it goes back into a disk shape in which it started life

Swivel:
Blimey  :LolLolLolLol:

So heating will work but freezing won't?

but not too hot eh, unless you want your skyway to look like a plastic puddle.
