-Diced wafers are usually on blue tape.  Thin plastic films should stick easily to seal it up. +Diced wafers are usually on blue tape.  Thin plastic films should stick easily to seal it up. I've been cutting the edges off to make them non-sticky and putting them in standard wafer carriers.

 +3/8" (10 mm) thick seems to work well for putting DIPs on both sides

 +depends on whether you want your foam to turn to goo or powder. personally i prefer goo
 +14:57:57 powder is open cell foam, it works as an abrasive too
 +14:58:07 goo is closed cell foam, which is oddly slick
 +14:58:23 after 20 years the foams disintegrate
 +14:58:41 open cell foam turns into some sort of acid (acetic?) which will eat chip legs i think
 +14:58:45 i don't know about closed cell
 +14:58:56 i think closed cell disintegrates much slower but gets 'sticky'
