Nopeπ
Being ironic, yes. Joking, no.
Mix mineral oil with seed oil
And submerge a canvas drop cloth in it, let it dry for a month in the sun during summer, and by fall youβll have a natural waterproof tarp.
Works best with flax seed oil (aka linseed)
Based
I was introduced to the usefulness of linseed oil as a building material (for sealing clay floors). It is so very cool we can use something like that for waterproofing
I use linseed oil all the time. It polymerizes in like 4 days. I use it on all the wood stuff I make.
Side note, mix linseed oil with diatomaceous earth, set it aside and turn it twice a week, after a month there will be a hard mass at the bottom, and the oil will have turned clear. That oil polymerizes in 24 hours.
I havenβt really bought into the βseed oils badβ argument yet. I only eat the cold pressed stuff, and not a lot of it, but Iβm not sure if the hydrogenated stuff is really the devil people make it out to be. I lean toward itβs just easier to get overweight on such a calorie dense food. If you know of any well made studies that indicate otherwise Iβm up for education. Linseed oil is excellent on wood and not too bad in oatmealπ. Lac flakes are really fun with wood finishing.
Not much to βbuy intoβ itβs simple facts that oils produced at ungodly temperatures results in toxicity and our cells literally cannot expel the filth for years.

He said he used cold pressed
Ok, I went to the store. The only bread I could find without soy oil was Ezekiel bread. Then got some avocado mayonnaise and half and half to replace my coffee creamer. π€
Badass. Health first as a priority, legit moves πͺ

Ezekiel bread is the bomb.
Do I just put it in the fridge?
Bread keeps best long term in freezer. Short term at room temp. Fridge bread goes stale faster.
Truth! I always made fun of my in-laws for doing it when I first got with my wife, now Iβm freezing every loaf I get from the farmers market π
Cold pressed is best.
Linseed smells sorta strange. These seed oils are more prone to go rancid too arenβt they?
Yes. But I think about it a little differently. I donβt think of them as rancid as i never have any intention of eating them. What is actually occurring is oxidation. Oxygen molecules are binding to the oil, changing them into something else. Iβm some cases they start to form a polymer lattice. i.e. a naturally occurring plastic.
