In the links page I like these guys. http://www.sorbentsystems.com/

I have used an iron for the large (5gal sized) bags. Heat/time depends on the thickness of the bag. If you get 18" or less width I will have a party soon.

I hope you may consider giving us a look at Discount Mylar Bags. When considering shipping, we are competitive or below most sellers on the net. If not, drop us a line and we'll beat any competitor's price on similar quantities.=)

Very nice site you have here! Sorry to pop in at random, but I try to keep up with preparedness folks on the net talking about food storage. My wife and I are modest preppers and shooters, though we only have one AR-15 in the family.=)

When using an iron to seal Mylar, our manufacturers recommend the wool setting for most bags between 3.5 and 5 mils. (Most bags from the survival prep sites will seal at between 275 and 350 degrees)

Thanks!

Well, I like the 1 gal bags with oxygen absorbers, its like a starter pack. Thanks

I have one of those Food Saver's, I wonder if that would seal Mylar?
