I always thought of transplanting the platters but never figured how to keep
the work area particle clean. Nice approach.
The way I'd heard was to go into the bathroom, run the shower on hot and
get it full of steam, then turn off the shower, and wait for the steam
to clear. The theory being that all the water vapor in the air would
bind to the dust in the air, and when it had all cleared, you'd be in
an impromptu clean-room.
I've never tried this myself.
I *like* that approach. But we didn't have a shower at work. :(
Anyone with a decent air quality tester willing to try this?
I wondered how I could get clean air into the trash bag, get tools in
without contaminating the air inside, and how to prevent particulates
from falling off of the tools. And all of that assumes that the inside
of the bag is clean of particulates. I used a can of air to get the bag
partially inflated. I cleaned the tools the best I could and wiped them
down with lint-free towels. I did the best I could to put the tools
into the bag with minimal air transfer. I couldn't think of a way to do
it any better. I sealed the bag after putting in enuf air that I could
maneuver things without too much headache, but not so much that I could
not grab the tools and work with them.
But even the shower trick won't take care of possible contaminates in
your breath (unless you can hold your breath for the procedure ;) ).
