@lynx - turns out I did know about your method you suggest but through different names.
Okay so looking online I am struggling to find somewhere that stocks acetone on the shelf.
Reading online there’s ‘nail polish remover’ acetone and then there’s ‘proper’ acetone. As far as I can work out, I want the proper stuff to use with abs shavings to make the gloop.
Might double check in the motor shop for a kit. Normally they stock highly questionable items at fair prices.
Definitely 'proper' acetone - nail polish remover often has moisturizing oils and other skin friendly contaminants that you do not want if you're solvent welding.
Try the 3D printing thread for ABS slurry recipes?
