Drying sand in the oven- anyone try it?


Hi gents & ladies,

I'm going to use monitors in my home office, got some really nice four-pillar Focus stands to sit the speakers on. I want to fill the pillars with sand, but want to make sure the sand is completely dry before I fill'em up. Why not use the oven? Heat it up and let the sand bake for a while. Have you done this? What temp? For how long? Thanks, Jeff

I have done it but you need to do it in small quantities and stir it often at about 200F. You could go higher with temp I suppose. You won't burn it.
Make sure to remove cat and/or dog crap first. And stay away from the yellow sand.
