    Nice video! You should do baking soda on each side to see where it’s breaking point is compared to the cotton!

      @bradnail99 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      This was my first thought as well. It would be nice to have numbers to determine just how much stronger the baking soda is.

    But why would you expect cotton to be the same as soda? They are so different materials. And the well known effect of using soda+superglue is based on chemical reaction with crystallization of material and heat dissipation, I guess you can't see the same with cotton. So it would be weaker to begin with. Cotton is just more comfortable to work with.

    While I loved this test for small repairs, I'd love to see a flex test.
    I mean: sometimes I tried repairing full pieces with baking soda and cyano but they are...yeah, rock hard. They do not bend at all and break.
    I think mmmaybe cotton can be less of a rock and more of a metal?

      @@HacksbyDad I came to your chanel when I wanted to find the answer for the same questuon. :) I see you do a great tests and reasonably dense videos. So I would also appreciate that kind of test. On the other chanel, where a guy showed how to repair plastics by supergluing cigarete ash, there was a discussion whether smaller particles in ash make stronger bonds or the baking soda biger grains work like stones in concrete. It calls gor an experiment. :) I have been already using baking soda, but I found ashes can be used as well only today. So I thought I will do the test and eventually publish it, but it is better to let it for someone who can do it in more metodically.
      I look forward for your test. :)
