I do have a question. About Borrowing tolerances if you make a Hyperbolic wind turbine that need to spend in 100 Mile an Hour winds would you 3d print it in metal or in a strong plastic what Kind of tolerance is would you borrow

Make a poster. I’ll buy it.

As a fellow tape enthusiast I have to add a few of my own favorite tapes. Rubber splicing tape: this is actually what you called self fusing silicone tape, both exist but the actual silicone stuff is pretty crap compared to the rubber splicing tape except when you need very high temps. Teflon film tape: Available in both pure teflon with a silicone adhesive so very high temp all around and also with fiberglass reinforcement, reasonably affordable if you buy it on aliexpress or similar, of course high temp, low friction, resistant to all the chemicals, often called "millionaire's tape" because the name brand stuff can be silly expensive UHMWPE tape: sold as "drawer slider tape" so you can make anything low friction and somewhat wear resistant if used correctly EMI shielding tape: very fine metal fabric with adhesive, pretty niche use but handy sometimes as it's better in some ways than aluminum or copper foil tape.

No mention how thermally conductive this material is

Yeah, whos telling me that? Someone who cant even solder a wire on a pcb

Skill Issue 🎉

Nice tip

I use milliput

I use hot glue for my moisture protection. It covers quickly and well, and isn't hot enough to screw up anything. The clay looks like it would work, I just think it takes too long. Hit glue is much faster.

To my knowledge shipping tape is pretty much always polypropylene. Strapping tape (with the fibers going down the length) is usually the same. The adhesives might be different, I'm not sure about those. Gaffer tape is definitely the most versatile for me though. Microcenter sells Savage brand and it's pretty good, though they sell it in medium green (for green screens) and black. If for some reason you enjoy bright colors as much as I do then Tape Jungle has fluorescent gaffers tape with the correct polyethylene impregnation unlike anything I can find on Amazon.

That is one sad soldering job.

Really interesting video!! 👏👏👏

I like the strength, rigidity, and lack of gross build-up of gaffer's tape, but it's way too expensive for me to use as a general-purpose duct-tape-replacement. how's the wiring harness tape compare? I'm also considering "book repair tape" as a slightly lower cost but probably decent alternative, and i'm not expecting much but am also curious about hockey stick tape. any hockey players here wanna comment on how the adhesive ages?

don't forget to retrieve the foam tape from inside your drill press

dude this is a great resource, quite a few uses/tapes I haven't seen before - thanks!

I'm interested in the vibration damping technique you showed. But I tried googling it but found basically nothing except in the context of drums. Is there any resource you can recommend that's reasonably accessible to a layman? Or even if it's not, that still might be better than nothing.

This video would be great with adhesives too, I use probably 30+ types.

You really didn't need to put the wires on first so it really wouldn't matter what insulation it is because you wouldn't have to bake it with the wires installed.

Hey if u don't have power to charge ur phone buy this battery and accessory that needs to be charged to charge ur phone.

Gaffer tape: So underrated! Fantastic video, thank you!

Clay absorbs humidity and contains salts, eventually it will conduct electricity. Not a good idea.

You forgot Milwaukee, and ryobi .

Kapton is Polyimide (and a DuPont brand name) The red stuff is Polyester, and also commonly available in transparent green, and opaque blue and yellow, among other colors. It's also often used on transformer cores to insulate the winding layers, and with resin mold making/vacuum bagging, because the resin doesn't adhere to it.

Thanks for the detailed reviews! I love tapes...! 🙂

7 minutes in and I can tell I'll soon have a very large Amazon order of nothing but tape. I will regret nothing.

Material Properties != Tolerance

I use epoxy. It also shields from rf a small bit wich helps for sensors. Especially if you use metal powder in the epoxy. You can also just glaze with epozybto waterproof it

Huh, I just finished the video and noticed you didn't talk at all about PET tape. It's almost as heat resistant as Kaplon tape, but it's green, very thick, very stiff, and even though I bought a roll out of curiosity a year ago, I still haven't figured out when to use it yet! I've heard some people with 3D printers use it instead of Kaplon, but I have no idea why. Any thoughts?

One correction: you said the thick double-sided super tacky tape is very expensive. I've been buying rolls of them for less than 10 cents a roll for the last two years from whichever asian invasive predatory dumping company you choose. It's about the cheapest tape you can buy for its strength, and I use it all the time. And while you could probably mount a TV to a wall with it, it's actually pretty easy to remove if you pull it *really* slowly. Like, much slower than you think. Also, they claim it's reusable if you wash it with water. I've never really tested that because, well, why would I at 9 cents per roll? But if you've got the tape on one object, and you tried to stick it to a very dust covered wall, then theoretically, if you believe them, you could clean the wall and rinse off the tape and reapply.

when i diassemble something small, like smartphone I always put those very small crews on a transparent tape (like usual packing tape). I can group then on a tape and can be sure no one will be missing. If I have to wait say delivery of spare part I cover them with other tape.

Tape enjoyers rise up

Just superglue the electronics onto a slab of wood

FYI tip: to get KZbin to mark the chapters on the video progress bar, make the first timestamp 00:00

why do I feel like we just watched something illegal? like a how-to video excerpt from anarchists cookbook or something.

Mass Loaded Vinyl tape is used for vibration and sound reduction. One time I went to tear some gaffer tape and it was glass fiber reinforced! I nearly cut myself trying to tear it. Also gaffer tape can react with PVC jacketed cables in a few months. It turns into a gooey mess. I worked in broadcast/video maintenance and have spent hours cleaning it off of expensive camera cables.

😮

I have a roll of electrical tape which has transferred the adhesive to the other side. It was not made that way.

Hot. Glue. 150c soft, 200c wet.

"..silicon insulated wire, i'll show it shortly" wait if it shorts it's not well insulated

tbf, Makita has had this available for a long time now, I think they called it “power head”

Lured in by the tape video, stuck around to find out about the state of open source hardware.

Thanks for this video! I haven’t nearly finished watching yet, but I already want to thank you for the demos of how each tape stretches to conform to the quarter! That’s a really great way to show that property visually

Would be better if your soldering wasn't dry af

No

Thank you.

Ok so its not actually clay..... Its a chemical compound that acts like a clay

2 min in cad and 30 on the printer would be simpler

👍

Rotary tool =/= every tool Nice drill hole lol
