Another tip. I shrink wrapped wires with rare earth magnets to allow the wire to be strung along metal and stuck to the metal. Example towing a car with mounted temporary taillights. The wire from those taillights are stuck along the car's body to be plugged into the vehicle doing the towing.

If you had no way to get glasses I guess that would be a way to fix a broke the frame. One thing you could do a little different, cut another piece of plastic like a splint and then put the heat shrink tubing around both the splint and the glasses where you plan to join the two broke parts of the frame together and then heat shrink it. This would add much more strength.

One of the most interesting and inspirational 'how to' videos I have seen in many years! Thank you. I'm off to dig out my heat gun. I already know where my never-used-yet big box of assorted shrink tubing is...

Some great tips and techniques here👌. At the 2 minutes 40 seconds mark where you repair the broken arm on the spectacles if you add a piece of piano wire inside the heat shrink sleeve it will make the repaired arm much more robust and resistant to buckling under stress loads. For best user safety make sure the cut ends of the piano wire are fully covered inside the length of the shrink wrap tubing.

3M Scotchkote Coating is highly recommended for underground electrical splices . Expensive but well worth it ! Nice Presentation .

The RCA end should have been completed a bit differently. The shield and cable jacket should have been crimped for a good strain relief and the whole thing could have been then heat shrink tubing out say two to three inches (2.5 to 5 cm) long for a good strain relief, but also utilizing the cover that threads in place over all of it.

Also there is shrink tubing with heat-activated adhesives inside (as seen in most of these examples), and there is heat shrink WITHOUT that. The adhesive type will serve better for things needing sealing. The resistor example should really be demonstrated by having the piece of heat shrink slipped onto one wire BEFORE completing the soldering - a common example would be mending a damaged wire, where you can't slip it on from an end because the ends are already affixed to something. Keep it far enough back from the point you might be soldering so it does not shrink before you're ready to slide it over the joint and want to shrink it. Another application: screwdriver shafts so you're less likely to short out a screwdriver on something. Shrink tubing is available in much larger sizes, and can be used to encapsulate electronic components. I don't know that your black sealant goo was, but many silicone / RTV caulks and such contain acetic acid, which react with copper, so make sure what you're using doesn't have that.

I used heat shrink on my wife's i-phone cord a couple years ago. I'm still her hero!

You are the master. Excellent ideas. Kudos to you

Before putting heat shrink tube over protection glasses, put a little amount of hot glue in it, after that put that heat shrink sleeve on, and it would be totally perfect.

Wow I never knew how to use shrink wrap...its amazing..

Excelentes proyectos , muy bien desarrollados y mejor ejecutados , yo también amo mucho los termoretractiles , es la mejor opción para sellar cables empatados , gracias por compartir sus conocimientos y experiencias , un saludo cordial y por supuesto un gran like desde Narón , Galicia ( España)😜🤓

Making the Y-transition breakou and grips for helping hands are actually great ideas.

Огромное спасибо вам за ваше творчество , очень вдохновляет делать красивые вещи )

There are some pretty neat ideas in this video. I may I may not have used some of those myself. These solder connectors look really intriguing. What solder did you use there? Some other things I cannot really recommend. Case in point: The edge protection thing is probably one of the goofiest uses for heat shrink I have seen. If you need any edge protection, improvised or otherwise, to protect a cable running over a hard point, there are some serious doubts in my mind as to why said cable is running over (and presumably rubbing on) a hard point in the first place. Either it lacks strain relief somewhere, or there were some really questionable design decisions.

You resin pot your shrink tube you are like royalty in the shrink tube zip tie arena. So simple of an idea. No more zip ties on a wiring harness. I can color match too.

For stabilization or strain relief purposes, I often use either a drop of hot glue inside or use some thin CA glue after the tubing cooled down. I recently put some cheap alligator clamps on barbecue sticks, put some heatshrink around it and CA glue.

Great video. I worked for raychem Corporation for 28 years the inventor of shrink tubing, now Tyco Electronics Endless Possibilities to shrink tubing used to irradiate the tubing with electron beams

Wonderful , your style of using the sleeves inspired and skillful.👏👍💯

Thanks for creative ideas of heat shrink.

The end part of the shoelace is called an aglet.

Даниэль, ты красавчик!!! Спасибо!

Siempre un gusto ver tus videos,,,,reparaciones para durar mucho tiempo❤

Very interesting! So many uses of heat shrink

The second one is the best! Thanks for these hacks!

Some good ideas and one I'd suggest avoiding. While the last tip may have made a reasonably good mechanical connection, the electrical connection is suspect and subject to oxidation (and thus increasing resistance) over time. I like the idea of making my own all-in-one heat shrink/butt connector - but did you have to use special low-temp solder? Shrink tends to split at higher temperatures. I've used the commercial version and don't feel they contain enough solder (although they do seem to work). I'd also never considered using the glue in the marine versions to stick the tubing to itself, creating tabs, separating wires or acting as cushioning material. Those are great suggestions!

Grazie per le tecniche e le soluzione che ci hai presentato

Once, I had a service powerline tech give a 6 inch piece of 3 inch diameter thickwall shrink tube. The shrink tube was applied to an axe handle where the handle joined the axe head. This was used to protect the handle from wear from splitting wood blocks. This lasted for years until it was stolen one day. The tech said that as long as heat was applied that the shrink tube would just keep shrinking until it completely enveloped what it was wrapping, even if it was around a 1/2 pipe. I could never find this shrink tube anywhere after this. I never did see the powerline tech guy again to acquire it.

I learn somuch tricks in your video thanks 👍 dear 😊😊

The safety glass repair would work a lot better if a partial paper clip was used to improve structural integrity.

The solder heat shrink sleeves hack is my favorite @9:45

Always a great result!

Magníficos trucos y útiles. Enhorabuena por tus videos y tutoriales, sobre todo para novatos ;-D

It's very usefull... Thank you !

Good ideas. As soon as I get a new phone cable I do this. It makes them last much longer.

Just be careful with the current going through a resistor that is covered. Those things have maximum current ratings, based on how quickly they can offload heat. Maximum power rating is the product of voltage drop across the resistor and current going through it. If you give the resistor a rubber coating, you impede its ability to disperse heat.

A lot of them will be very helpful, thanks. I was thinking, is it always necessary to slide the tubes in place, or could you cut them open and roll them around the spot that needs covering?

Amazing music, and great work.👍🤜🤛 Mr. Tartalja, I would ask you to tell us, who produces the tinol wire you use in the video. Eternally grateful..🍾🥂

Ciao Daniele,bel video!Nei primi esempi di uso del termorestringente fino ai manici delle pinze a pappagallo hai usato un termorestringente con collante incorporato?

Where can I buy the spider/multi arm holder gadget to used?

Wish I could give you two thumbs up’s! Many great idea’s.

Very useful. Thanks.

شكرا يا سيد دانييل

What is the black liquid that was poured into the connection for the underwater connection? It's at 14:30.

Awesome video compilation 👍

@Daniele Tartaglia, in the second video (glasses) can I ask were did you get the apparatus from that held the glasses, thanks for the share

Thanks for the video!

Could you please tell me in minute 2:49 you use some aligator clips with articulated arms. Which name that receives? I find it very useful. Thank you

Bravo, Danielе ! Video molto utile ! Voglio vedere nuove macchine e dispositivi! Aspettiamo !

Bel video, soluzioni davvero creative 👍 🇮🇹

You r great bro..

nice bro 👍 excellent thanks for sharing ❤

Hi, the first hack is very very good! And next hacks are very good! Thanks you behind video!

Daniele sei sempre il numero 1

Salve tutto interessantissimo; una domanda, però, qual'è la temperatura ideale per lavorare con la pistola ad aria calda sui termorestringenti? Grazie.

A few tips I haven't seen or thought of before. Thank you. Have a like and a sub!

That's cool ! well done !

11:09 if you cut this up (or any factory-made solder butt splice) you'll see that the solder didn't actually flow to the inside strands - because they never get hot enough in this type butt splice. It may be OK for low-voltage solid (not stranded) wires, but never as good as a proper non-low-temperature solder with flux, followed by a flux cleanup and a marine grade heat shrink. 8:40 when applying heat to any solder type connector, it's best to do so when it's plugged in into a mating connector. This assures its geometry / pin alignment stays intact through the application of heat.

great video, Thank you

I'm thinking you want a rigid "splint" of some sort in the "eyewear repair"... "music wire" has been a favorite of mine, lately...

Great one man.👍

Shoelaces, nice, never thought of that.

At 11:43 the Lightning cable has a broken shield. Just covering up the damaged cable with heat shrink tubing is not fixing anything. It is just disguising it. The shield is there for a reason, to protect against electromagnetic interference. If all you are doing is charging, you can get away with it but if you are using it for data you might have a problem. The USB data lines carry low voltage but very fast signals. Stray EMI can cause errors in the data or even make it unusable. Better to repair the shield if you are using it for more than just charging.

Wonderful ideas!

That was super cool man...

Great video, thanks

Good tips!

Amazing :) thanks for sharing :)

The glasses was not great but the rest are pretty nice. I like especially the shoe laces repair :)

the tubes with solder in them was something that never crossed my mind :O

Creative as hell 😯👍

T'es le meilleur !

Molto utile. La terza mano snodabile dove si può acquistare? Grazie mille.

How well does a connection between two wires that is made as shown here compare to one that is soldered and then covered in HST?

Ottime idee e soluzioni

Amazing idea

Please say me !! While glasses putting in the stand ......where he did buy ? And what is the name of the stand

What material is in black colour in poly bag? Please mention name...

Классно ! Это надо добавить в закладки

rope end to the heat shrink is good to use to keep it from untwisting to ot fraying too someone let the air out of the tires use heat shrink to promote them trying to do it to

What is the black compound you use for sealing inside the heat shrink is called?

For GX connector, what the purpose, it covered by plastic and female?

Very good ideas

You invented wheel once again, great!!

You are a thinker, and a teacher, thanks

What is the stuff you used in the underwater cables section? (To fill up the shrinkwrap)

great ideas. i'll subscribe for that

Excellent 👍

Cable pants are very cool :)

You are using the shrink tube with the thermal activated adhesive innige inside, Right? In the first example , how did that not stick to the Connector, or later on did actually fuse?

1:57 good idea ty

Where to buy helping hand like in the video with the working glass?

что за паяльник ты используешь

excelent 👍🏼

11:22 is the best one

Very well ❤

UN GENIO!

clear shrink tube i use with name tags and my tools with cords on them china finger trap i use with a new plug on the end of an electrical cord keeps the cord jacket from shrinking out of place heat shrinks the trap to make the end harder to let go too carry heat shrink in your fish tackle box if your rod breaks could repair it to

Good ideas

What black adhesive or sealant is that at the minute 17:14 ? Where we can buy?
