Problem: Pulling thermoplastics over an AFO lined with aliplast or plastizote causes the plastic to curl in, regardless of how long it is left on the model. I end up using a blow torch to reheat the plastic and torque it back out into proper alignment. There has got to be a better way. I would appreciate any suggestions.
