Step 3Preparing the fuser and the place to hang the fuse
I strongly advise you to do this outdoors on a nice sunny day. However, it was very damp and rainy the day I took these photos so I set up the rig in my basement, and it would be hypocritical for me to tell people not to do this. So instead I will give a WARNING, IF YOU MUST DO THIS INDOORS MAKE SURE THERE IS NO SOURCE OF IGNITION ANYWHERE NEAR THE DRYING FUSE, also its very messy so be prepared for to clean up if you do it indoors.
With that being said its time for preparation.
If you do this outdoors the only thing you will need is somewhere to hang the string, the best method uses a clothes line and clothes pins to hold the string on it, however you can also wrap it around fence posts or even trees ( just remember that it will leave marks so if you have a nice white fence I wouldent advise wrapping fuse around it)
If you do this indoors you will need 2 or more surfaces to "web" the fuse back and fourth between. I used a tv tray holder and one of the support posts to the main house crossbeam in my basement.
I covered the surfaces that would come in contact with the fuse in the brown paper used to wrap school books, you could use bags, old newspapers, etc. I then taped them with electrical tape to hold the paper on.
Cover the area underneath where the fuse will hang with newspapers or paper towels because it will drip.
To set up the fuser put the 2 spools of cotton string on the 2 dowels, feed the strings through each of their holes, underneath the horozintal dowel in the tupperware, and out the exit hole. Once the strings are out of the tupperware container tie them together with a small knot. You are now ready to mix the chemicals.
