A while back a friend gave a water bed heater that I knew would come in handy some day.  Well this weekend it did as a honey bucket heater.  It wraps completely around. It covers from top to bottom. It has a thermistat that ranges from 70 - 100 deg. I just tucked the thermistat probe between the heater and bucket ans set it at 90

Danno, I recall in a thread some time ago mention of using a water bed heater for that work....wonder if it was you?  hee, hee.  That is an excellent idea, by the way.  I bet waterbed heater sales are going to go off the map, hee, hee.  Beautiful and most wonderful of these days, love life.  Cindi
