Because the crack is on the outside. I have that case, it's got an outer shell which you see, and on the inside there's plastic that confirms to the saw that it holds. You can't separate them without breaking it.
@@dannyyo7948 News outside of the box however, is not such a good idea. They made that attempt at KIRO-TV in Seattle years ago, and it simply didn't work well. Free-range anchors looked silly, and weren't tasty like chicken.
This is actually very similar to real plastic repair/welding. Just a slightly more simple solution. Body shop that does plastic repairs inset metal wire into plastic bumpers and such.
Used to make vape coils with 316 stainless steel, in roughly 22 gauge it was still super flexible after multiple heating and cooling cycles and this would be in the adjustment stage so talking yellow hot to touch it cool in a second or so. A split ring of that should work pretty well here since it's pretty firm while cold yet still flexible enough to not snap either.
That's really awesome and all but I'll just stick w/ my crack lighter and paperclip trick..... You can probably figure out how it works by the name. LoL
Metal reinforcement is nice but a flexible metal mesh is better, also it needs a literal bead of plastic sometimes to create water proof seals or in my case bumpers
I love how these pop out right out during the presentation xD If you don't have a plastic welder and you don't care about the aesthetics, just stitch it with a wire/zip tie and use flexible glue.
@@lilu2580 Only thing getting this guy by is his video and editing skills. I'll bet he knows everyone roasts him in the comments and enjoys how that helps him create more income anyway. Everyone just keeps coming back.
I use metal screen for doing this. It imbeds better, can be used on any contour, allows flexibility and you know it's not going to pop out or come out at all for that matter. ✌️
It’s a temp fix as soon as you push to hard or the plastic stretches around the rings it coming lose you would be better if drilling holes and use zip ties for a longer run and would have a cooler looking finish
There's another way to repair it: make a holes on both sides of the crack with small screwdriver and lighter. Sew the plastic with fat thread made from natural materials and applying super glue. The thread will harden like a plastic and it's fiber will prevent it from breaking. The result looks a bit better, and proved to be sturdy enough.
theres literally a plastic welding tool designed to do exactly this. it uses staple like fasteners instead, which will work way better than those circles
As a autobody tech I do a lot of plastic welding to repair broken bumpers and this is just not a proper repair. The broken plastic isn't being welded to together to begin with they're just melting the top part and embedding rings which looks terrible and will not hold properly over time because the main body of plastic is still broken and separated
Do you weld both sides, or is one side sufficient? I imagine it depends on the thickness and type of plastic being welded. Can Plastic bottles be welded? Can Vinyl sheets be welded? Can those Switchback Welding parts be used to help weld metal to Steel and/or Aluminum? A Viewer asked a similar question below. I, too want to know the brand of the Plastic Welder; the name of the Switchback parts, and Material Options for those parts.
Interesting. Never had an opportunity to use 3d printer/filament yet but definitely move higher on the list the more I learn about it. Thanks for sharing.
The easiest but not the strongest and cleanest way. Been working projects and hobbies involving plastics like ABS, PLA, etc. Those rings will just pop out in no time. You can use smaller diameter wires and use plastic cement that melts the two parts and welds them stronger. I don't also recommend CA glue to repair plastics because they always come off after a period of time. There's a Chinese AB glue I always buy at MR.DIY store. They adhere to plastic very strongly and turns white when dried.
Only works with thermoplastics , ie, one’s that are able to be melted again. Also, it doesn’t look like it’d hold very well. And careful with melting plastics and being around the potentially toxic fumes
You dont need solder just stick the iron in to the crack in different spots allowing to cool. Like spot welding on a car. After enough of them you can start blending it more
Great job, looks like shit.

that will work a but till it breaks again. use a steel wools instead they can last long and gives fiberish strength
How about fiberglass screening?
Yes, and use a direct flame with it!
Yes. The wool will ignite... Or rust entire!y if it gets wet..
Oh well.
I've used 3D printing filament to weld cracked plastic totes back together. Worked pretty good 👍
I do the same occasionally, but depending on the material, sometimes it can be a little fucky and not stick as well
@@TylerMcL3more could be cause the filament cooled down to quickly or it has absorbed humidity
The problem is if it takes any pressure the rings are just going to pop right out. It needs to be something that'll give instead of metal.

@@nicholasmorsy633 yes, but the substrate should be melted together. The screening is just reinforcing and it shouldn't be the entire repair.
A 3d printing pen would work wayyy better 😂
@Funk FPV I need you on some of these!
Just the man we need
Funk is awesome!
Agreed
That's not how youtube works bro 🤣
@@justaweeb9086 well they introduced tagging kind of like tiktok. It just turns out that normal people can't do it.

I love me a crack lighter.
I used to work with some girls that smoke and I would turn their lighters in the crack lighters and they would get so mad
I’m surprised that you, hunter biden, would need to weld plastic.
@@robotseattrees9386 - 😂
One reason I don't like anything but Bics and Clippers... But I keep a couple of the cheapos for emergencies. LoL

I’ve plastic welded a bunch of stuff for old vehicles and never thought to add metal for support.
You Always do the INTERNAL side,not external side..
It's double-sided, inner one holds tools and the outer is just for the shape of it
I've always used JB weld and zip ties. Stitching stuff up with zip ties can look pretty cool too.

Great, now test if it works, and you see it works perf- oh shit nevermind...
уже вижу как ящик после ремонта разваливается и кольца сыпятся на землю
И звук как в сонике😁
@@Theogen🤣
Next shorts idea : let's weld glass!
Finally some good content from this channel, i nearly got an heart attack after successfully watching this
No, that's not a good repair. The plastic should be melted and mixed together along the crack. Screen can be used as a reinforcement.
@@ProleDaddy atleast it is still better than rest of video bruh 😂

This works on relatively broad/flat surfaces, but not heavily curved ones
Good idea👍
Well done man, everything is smart 👍
Probably the most useful idea I've ever seen for fixing something plastic.
Kind of a good idea… alternatively if what you have is made of ABS, you can make abs glue out of scraps and acetone, very strong bond
It’s a temp fix as soon as you push to hard or the plastic stretches around the rings it coming lose you would be better if drilling holes and use zip ties for a longer run and would have a cooler looking finish
Great idea! I'm gonna do that to my trash can.
This is actually pretty cool and useful. It's nearly like how the pros do it with their specialty tool
Lol right
They make an actual useful tool that costs less then building that time and material cost wise and you can actually weld
There are very nice commercially available tools for this
What are you using for the rings? Having a hard time thinking if it's metal or solder wire.
Think people are missing the point that it will need finishing. This is just to attach the pieces together. Brilliant idea
Видно как на первом примере они отходят и он так легонько тестирует чтоб оно окончательно но отвалилось ...
I just purchased a plastic welding kit recommended Project Farm, it's the OIMERRY. Good to know there are other options.
Pretty ingenious with the steel structural support. I weld plastic my entire life and never thought of this.
Great idea!
There's another way to repair it: make a holes on both sides of the crack with small screwdriver and lighter. Sew the plastic with fat thread made from natural materials and applying super glue.

GLUING IT WOULD MAKE IT SMOOTHER
Wow, Nice finishing 😁
Why didn't you just melt it an smooth it over. Why the rings tho they will pop out
yeah, but do it on the inside. and just smooth theoutside with the soldering iron and then a bit of sanding
There’s zero welding occurring here. Melting plastic 101..

Good info. Efficient method. Will keep this in mind. Thank you.
And that is ingenuity. I'm gonna do this with metal mesh. Doesn't have to be pretty to get the job done.
Great 👍
Plastic cement or putty it fillsnthe gap and melts the plastic together.
Excelente idea 👍🏽
Excelente lo intentare 🎉
Great idea. Ignore the negative comments
Best to just drill holes and zip tie it back together.
thinking outside of the box new level
Nice to know but what I use is Thing piano wire an a curved Needle and stitch it.
First - use stainless steel mesh. Second - do it from the bottom. You're welcome.
I've fixed many bumpers that way as a collision tech
@@blakereiter7418 I'm sorry to hear that
What if she won't let you do it from the bottom?
@@jwcarlson :) I know what you did here :D
Will it work on plastic water container too?, In the first place, the seams not thoroughly mended together ..
Watching you from Bangladesh
Smart, Ur creative. I like this especially using the Bolt instead of a tip cheers...
Is that solder wire??

What tool is used in video name
What instrumental is this. 🔥
if you use some 3mm ABS 3d printer filament, in a dremel you can weld it properly

So you does it look like they are using solder to keep it in place? The stuff bends like it's nothing
Nice!
Oh, heat? Nice lol
Muchas gracias
Duct tape sales after this video was posted 📉
a light and multiple quick passes of the blowtorch works better than whatever that is
Nope,there are actually plastic welders that use a real heat source and plastic welding rods...They work great on old brittle 4wheeler fenders...
Would have been easier and smarter to make some light duty locking washers with those. They’d work good for like a shelf
Это надо делать изнутри!
Ммми хуета 🤣👍
Это нифига не прочно получилось. Можно и без проволоки запаять, добавить пластика с обратной стороны и всё будет гуд
Я тоже сомневался.
What about plastic rings?
Why not use plastic rings?
Do I need to go to a trade school to become a certified plastic welder??
Why don't you welt the box from inside instead of outside?
That is a pretty good idea I'd go deeper like the second one tho
Only works with thermoplastics , ie, one’s that are able to be melted again. Also, it doesn’t look like it’d hold very well. And careful with melting plastics and being around the potentially toxic fumes
Gooe idea. Song title plss
Wow 😮👍
Zip ties are a more commonly avaliable option. And you can get them in a variety of colors
A zip tie stich job would be better
Duuud what the hell i just broken my toster and starter branding IT with my welder
wow, nice! you managed to make it look like complete shit! nice!
When you don't have proper glue...
You dont need solder just stick the iron in to the crack in different spots allowing to cool. Like spot welding on a car. After enough of them you can start blending it more
Would it even work?
Make it 2-sided would be better, Bro.
The funny thing is that he pulled out bmw plastic “the black plastic piece”. And it needs it the most
And here I went and used gorilla super glue, the impact resistant one, tho it did come out a bit white haha
Bonus points if you used your homemade battery soldering iron!
Why not just use the same tool on both sides WITHOUT the rings and just go along the entire crack to melt it all back together?
Good temp repair. My gf constantly fucks her bumper up. I’m not buying a new one 😂😂
This isn't welding plastic. All you're doing is melting metal rings into it. If you properly weld it, you don't need the metal.
Use a little wire mesh and some plastic filler
