lloyd Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 My magazine is a built-to purpose sheet metal structure on a concrete slab. I only have need to store a maximum of around 500lb, so it's physically small. I didn't need a Conex container for the sort of work I do. My 'box' is a frame structure about 8' x 6', covered in 5-vee tin and roof, elevated above our very wet soil about 8" on a concrete base. 'Standard double-hasp, hooded, double-locked arrangement. I have clearance for 10000lb, but no need. So, no need to 'complicate things'. Lloyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllisterF Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Personally not a fan of using the hot glue around any live compositions but, just the same it can save a lot of time over traditional glues, in many applications... I also use them quite often when designing custom electronics to pot parts or just hold things together... I honestly love the cheap guns you get at Walmart, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ad-Tech-Glue-Gun-Dual-Temp-Full-40w/17404363 I like the more 'professional' style tip vs what you see on most other low end guns, and the price is right so I can have a half dozen of them loaded with different types and colors of glues while sharing the same removable cord so the work area is not cluttered... For glue, I get colored sticks in bulk, just because I like the look of the different colors vs the same old waxy look of traditional hot glue... I also always have some 'high bond' professional grade amber colored glue sticks on hand, when I need a better bond... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georg123 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I think such a thing at home is just necessary.https://gluegunwiki.com/reviews/best-hot-glue-guns-for-crafts/ Recently, the daughter doll fell off scalp along with hair))))))))))))))) So I quickly repaired the doll with this gun)) For men too the thing is necessary, as they can fix different wires, etc.)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I have sat on this subject for 2 years while I have been on a "lets buy a house and sell the old one" hiatus. Based on what I have seen work well and what I have seen go up in smoke after days of continuous use in hot weather and at PGI, I suggest the Surebonder HE-750 hot glue gun (corded) or the PRO2- cordless line for Millwalkie/Dewalt/Makita batteries. Encases ceramic heaters dont spark when they die, they just die. Surebonder 701 Fast Set Packaging Adhesive is my FAV hot glue stick, a #25 box runs about $200 shipped. The HE-750 gun has replaceable tips, I extended one to almost 2" to get in deep inside a tube. It would be hard to find this good of a gun for $25 elsewhere.
