Put a heat gun on low, and shrink the shrink tube down, moving fully around the tube. *Let cool for about 30 seconds. Cut off the shrink tube. *If you've done it right, you melt the coating back on itself, leaving a strong loop. Frank Reid And if you've done it wrong? You get published. * * * * ![]() giles hey, am i right, or am i wrong? Thhhhhhttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frank Reid |
