How to Zip, Stick, and Screw Stuff Together
// Hack a Day
One of the first problems every new hacker/maker must solve is this: What's the best way to attach part "A" to part "B". We all have our go-to solutions. Hot glue, duck tape ( "duct tape" if you prefer) or maybe even zip ties. Super glue, epoxy, and if we're feeling extra MacGyver-ish then it's time for some bubble gum. For some Hackaday readers, this stuff will seem like old hat, but for a beginner it can be a source of much frustration. Even well versed hackers might pick up a few handy tips and tricks presented in this video after the break.
In part one of this series, [Ben Krasnow] shows us the proper use of just a few of the tools and techniques he uses in his shop. [Ben] starts out with a zip-tie tool which he loves in part because of a tension setting that ensures it's tight but not overly. He moves on to advice for adhesive-vs-material and some tips on using threaded fasteners in several different circumstances. He also included a list of the parts and tools he uses so you don't have to go hunting them down.
[Ben] is no stranger to us here at Hackaday. He does some epic science video. You can subscribe to his channel or follow his blog if you enjoy what you see.
