Gorilla Waterproof Patch & Seal Tape


 


Today's review is of the Gorilla waterproof sealing tape. I got one of those large inflatable Santa's for the yard this Christmas. During a windstorm the inflatable Santa hit the gutter and tore a 2 foot hole in the head of Santa. I had tried a few other tapes and adhesives but the combination the Midwest winter the water and cold caused the other tapes to fail and I gave up hope that Santa would be fixable. 

Step in the Gorilla tape. I purchased the 4" wide band to cover the large hole, covered it with the clear 2" Gorilla Tape and fired up the fan again. 


Success!!! 

I have been taking down the Santa when it gets windy but in the rain and snow so far the tape has held its own. Personally I thikn this is one of the harsher applications of this product.

TP-Link EAP110-Outdoor V3 Review

 Short review for today, I needed to extend my wireless coverage to the back yard. My son likes to listen to music when we are playing outside and lets just say his music tastes are not on my vast library of stuff I was able to get on Napster. So we use youtube and spotify to play songs and a few data overages later I decided we needed an upgrade. I didn't need anything super fast just, 300Mbps speed is plenty fine but I did want to have coverage over the entire back yard. I also wanted a POE solution so I just had to worry about burring one cable and the low voltage makes it safer as well since I ended up mounting it on his playhouse.      Installation was a snap, a few screws into the mounting plate and plug in the CAT6 cable and it was installed. Once I verified I had power I logged into the  Omada APP and was able to find and setup the WAP in a few minutes.      Right now about 15% of the total network band width is using this access poin...

Fulament Fula-Flex 2.0 Magnetic Spring Steel Smooth PEI Flex Bed

 Hi everyone! So I recently have been looking for a way to get my prints off the printer in a cleaner way. I have been traying the typical hair spray / glue stick on the glass bed and that has done me well so far but I was really looking for something a bit easier to use. I recently came across a flexible bed made by Fulament. Now I have seen these flexible beds before but they always seemed to be cheap thin little parts that I was worried would never stay flat. This bed is however is great, for just $50 (a bit more if you want the textured version) is very thick. On top of that the magnet comes with a very sticky adhesive 3M backing and stuck solid to the aluminum platform. Installation process was simple 1. Take off the glass 2. Clean the surface with the supplied alcohol pads 3. Attached the magnet and snap on the plate. 4. re-level the print bed That's it! Print performance has been great, I have done a dozen prints or so and they come of clean and I don't have to wash off ...
