Posted: Sun Jul 27, 2008 1:02 pm Post subject: How I used my Lord Fusor today. |
|
|
This is pretty neat stuff. Got mine in mail yesterday. Thought I'd start a thread to see how others are using it.
Today, used it to mount a battery combiner inside the lazarette where it is so tight to drill and use screwdrivers (who needs more holes).
Also used a piece of flexible plastic L shaped drywall edge protector (home d) with Fusor along the top rear edge of the cabin roof (under the bimini, clean first) to stop rain/spray from dripping into cockpit. Should work for a long time as it is protected from UV by the bimini.
Other ideas?

I guess I am not up on cutting edge tools up here in the NW. What is a Lord Fuser. A description and pictures would maybe help. I may need one and not even know it yet. _________________ David and Kate

One of the many things I used it for was to mount velcro around the cabin windows. The other side of the velcro is stapled to blue towels which I use for cabin privacy. I also used it to secure those annoying window latches that used to fall off. Don't tell anyone, but I even used it to mount a small fire extinguisher in the cockpit. Also good for those little suction cup containers. I threw away the suction cups. _________________ MartyP

I stuck up a couple of those plastic wedge shaped soap holders they carry at bath stores that come with double sided stick on the back. But with adding the Fusor they are strong enough to carry pliers, scissors, wire crimps, hook removers and the like right there at eye level and they don't rattle.
I also stuck one of those organizers of the suction cup variety with slots for hooks around the edges against the wall in the center of the table, for all those little things you use frequently, pens, reading glasses etc. a good place to throw all the small stuff and a convenient place for salt and pepper too. |

If you buy a roll from Amazon the price is the same but the shipping is $4 less.

Posted: Sat Sep 20, 2008 6:48 pm Post subject: Fusor tape and King Starboard? |
|
|
Since reading here about Fusor tape I'd been kind of thinking about screwing interior fittings to Starboard bases then attaching to bulkheads, etc. with the Fusor tape. (Saving holes!) More recently I read that nothing (except maybe the Loc-Tite glue mentioned) will stick to Starboard. Has anyone tried these two products together? (I know, I should just try it myself, then report.) |
