[david07]

I prefer feasting on birds without the feathers

1) Remove the endcaps from both sides of the tube

2) Place the tubes horizontally on the bathroom counter

3) Take a hot shower

4) Feel good after your shower

5) Replace end caps on the tubes

6) Remove from bathroom and store at room temperature

7) Wait 2+ days for optimal use

Thanks a lot Dink. You said 2+ days, but how many days before the steaming I did get's "expired"?

Say 10-14 days until you should re-steam.

Say if I'm going to play two times in five days, would i have to resteam after the first session? or just leave it and steam after 10-14 days like you said

Ideally do not re-steam; it will increase the speed of the shuttle.

I only re-steam if I have to which is months after.

oh ok, so basically it's like a once in a life time thing for the shuttle

I think you should take them out of the tube and put it near moisture source (or steam/vapour) while you shower. you can also leave it in the bathroom all the time. see if mold grows on feather or not

Maybe some of you members tell me exactly ur method of doing, so I can see a lot of different ways

I don't do the shower thing at all, I have a humidifier...

Do a search. It's been discussed many times.

For me the humidifer works best.
