okay...i think that someone here told me how to 'make a block' from
ammonium chloride
crystals...
i can't find that information. would you be so kind as to tell me
again...about a pound of
the stuff is on its way...it's good to have friends in the chemistry
department of my former
place of employment...the Harvard of Turkey - (or as i like to call
it..the Turkey of Harvard)
thanks again.

Why don't you try sprinkling a layer of the crystals on a pad made from a
wet paper towel and wiping the hot iron tip across it? Try dampening the
crystals just slightly (spritz with a spray bottle?)
My SalAmmoniac block gives off "grit" when I use it, sometimes I catch that
grit and put it on a wet sponge in the iron holder. It adds just enough
"abrasive" with the sponge to keep the tip just right.
