Great video. I like to use a manilla folder like the ones found in filing cabnets. They are heavier and would hold up under all but the most extreme situations such as head gaskets. Instead of banging it out I just apply a thin coat of oil to the part then lay the manila paper on and it leaves the outline. Then just cut it out with an exacto knife. I never thought of using a bag but I guess anything to fill in the tiny nooks and crannies will work.
Thanks for the video....

@HoboSuperstar If you want to get technical paper is made from cellulose pulp. Cellulose pulp, being organic, is in fact constructed from carbon chains. So are you, so is the food you eat. However to say these items are made from carbon is a bit of a broad description. Carbon gaskets are actually made with a much higher carbon content hence giving its heat tolerance.

I've don this, works well. If you're worried about the strength of the paper, just coat it with "indian head" gasket shellac. I have shop-made gaskets that are still in service after a decade.

"HOLY SHIT" , Thanks big papa, now I can go make my gasket for my engine.

@HoboSuperstar You are made from carbon too if you want to break it down to chemical properties. However in the real world paper is made from cellulose. Exhaust gaskets are NOT made from standard paper. They are made from a carbon that is similar to coal. You can also purchase copper gaskets for exhaust systems.
