can I use hair dryer

Is it o.k. to use a hair dryer to speed up drying time between layers? Are there other methods of drying paper mache quickly?
Thanks

Re: can I use hair dryer

I suppose you could use a hairdryer to dry out your work between layers, I would be frightened of burning the motor out though.  You can dry pieces off in a cool oven if they will fit and I know many people use fans.
Personally I use PVA glue which I find drys pretty quickly anyway.

Have a good scout through the previous forums, I have found loads of amazing tips and tricks in there.

Hope this helps, good luck
