    Inner tube as gasket?

    Do you think using a bicycle inner-tube could work as a gasket material?

    I use shower pan gasket from Home Depot in my cell. It works great and is cheep . it comes 5' x # about $5.28 a foot. I also had my local shop make a guide for me. then i'm able to cut 8 gaskets at a time.

    I tried using car and tractor inner tubes and it didn't work for me because the tube is not the same thickness across the sufrace and my cell leaked a lot..
    I found a tractor parts shop where they sell rubber in meters (tractor owners use it for who knows what, maybe gaskets), I just say what thickness I want..
