Re: [Killietalk] Sealing Kordon bags

[kho <txp2888 at yahoo_com.sg>]

I hold the opening and lay the breather bag
horizontally with water inside, the heating element
break apart the water and upon that when the plastic
touch both side the bag the electrical heat is than
apply to seal the bag.

I get reliable seal each time and also tested it by
placing some weight on the bag.

The cost of it in SG is about the same.
Here is the image of the impluse sealer
