Re: Testing blocks in the home shop
I made gaskets from scrap pieces of vinyl flooring. Easier to cut and punch out stud holes compared to rubber sheeting and the cost was zero. This went under a stock head which was magnafluxed separately by the same shop that performed the pressure test. The machinist said the vinyl flooring gasket worked well for the test. Separate gaskets were made from the same material for the water inlet/outlets.
