A bath.

A bath.
This is what soft vinyl toys are cooked in, a 200C vat of chemicals.  I have a lot more respect now for the people that have been making toys this way for the last 40 or so years, it's hot and hard work and literally you will give blood, sweat and tears doing it.  These last couple years I have learned a lot more about the process and what goes into it and what comes out of it and now understand why it's a dying art.  Most of the people still doing it are past retirement age and most young people are not interested in keeping it alive, you wont get rich doing it that's for sure.
