Instead of a lamp, we might use another kind of heater, but we would need to ensure that it would heat the fibers, not just the outside of the quartz ferrules.

5/2: Today I can cut two more bundles of sci-fis, one to replace the "To be milled" fibers that we will not use and the other as an extra bundle. But when I was about to start cutting, I found that we are out of snack bags to put the fibers in.
I looked around for somewhere to put the fibers temporarily. There is a snack bag I have been using for short fibers for fusing practice. I will use that one temporarily for one sci-fi bundle. In the storage closet in lab 405 I found a Thor Labs lab snacks box. Inside there were some shiny foil strips. Some of the strips were in a snack bag and some were loose in the box. There was also an empty snack bag in that box. Since it was empty, I will use it for the other sci-fi bundle to be cut today. It can be a permanent bag since we can always get another snack bag for the foil strips from the lab snacks box if we ever need one. I will label the empty bag and use it to store a bundle of sci-fis.
