I went to the local (only one) hobby shop, and they have what they call a coveri ng iron. it's used to heat the film covering on model airplanes and it shrinks t ight to the frame. the knob that regulates the temp just has lo, 1 through 10 a nd hi settings. I called the dist. and they said the heat range starts at abou t 200 degrees (best guess.), and tops out at 400 to 450 degrees.
question is : for tacking drymount tissue what is the heat range needed?
this thing is $15.00, teflon coated, and appears to be well made. the brand is : Hangor 9 made by horizon hobby. it looks remarkably like that other brand w e all know so well that's more expensive. will this work?
thanks for your educated input.
