    Where to get unprinted newspaper
    Anyone know where to get it? Home Depot has this roll of this brown stuff but I don't know if that's good.

    Go to your local news paper and ask them, they ususlly have left over rolls from printing they give away or sell for really cheap

    I order it online at ULINE, lately I've been using something called 'bogus paper' and it's been working really well. http://www.uline.com/BL_1964/Bogus-P...ds=Bogus+Paper

    I went to Uhaul locally and purchased their wrapping paper. It's clean, unprinted wrapping paper that is used for safeguarding things like ceramics and glass when you are moving. It cost 9.95 for 200 sheets. Each sheet is large enough to fit a 41 qt. tub. Actually it says clean ,white , newsprint on the box! :)

    Second the bogus paper from Uline. If you have a lot of tubs, you can buy a roll cutter from them too that makes it much easier to cut large amounts.

    I purchase a 18" x 1000ft paper roll at sams club. it is like $16 for a giant roll. You can get the metal holder/dispenser on Amazon.

    Exactly what I use and where I purchase it :gj:

    Some of the new boxes contain 240 sheets for the same price, just a heads up.

    If you have any local newspaper/advertiser printing companies give them a call. They usually just throw out their "end rolls" which still have a good bit of paper left after printing. You can probably score all the unprinted paper you need for free if you make a couple calls.

    Would normal newspaper be ok? I'm having trouble finding any imprinted newspaper. I just feel like it may have chemicals on it (besides from the ink).

    That would be fine, it used to be a concern when newsprint was printed with petroleum based inks, but virtually all newspaper these days is printed with soy based ink.

    Re: Where to get unprinted newspaper
    Hey I've switched to the newspaper since I'm out of aspen. The newspaper doesn't seem to heat up too well. Tstat is set to 94 and the bottom of the tub under the newspaper is at about 90. But the newspaper is only at like 86. I'm hesitant to increase tstat temp because I don't want it getting too hot because what if they figure out that they can get under the newspaper while it's hotter?

    Also what is too hot for flexwatt and plastic tubs? When do burns, fire hazards, and melting become a concern?
