Question:

Help with plastic melting please?

Is there any way to melt plastic without it burning? I want to mold some into something

Answer:

Yes, some plastics can be melted, but this is often difficult because the melting point of the plastic is very near its burning temperature. Household heating say a saucepan has hot and not so hot surfaces so reaching the ideal temperature is nearly impossible. You could try making a double boiler with oil as the heat transfer media.
