To speed up using tubes of glue, lotion, etc., I use a Leathercraft Roller that I purchased on Amazon to squeeze all the goop to the open end of the tube. Then I tightly roll the now flattened tube end toward the end with the goop. When I get it rolled as tight and as close as possible, I use a chip clip to secure the tube and keep all the glue, lotions, etc. at the open end. I roll and tighten as needed as I use the product. By the way, I make my chip clips by cutting off the clips from pants hangers. They last forever and I use them all over the house including in the freezer.

I always take the little aluminum stand off all glue guns as soon as I get them. They just get in the way. I made a box tray, sides about 2.5 inches high, with several layers of cardboard from recycling so it is rigid enough to lift it up with everything inside. (Made with the glue gun, natch!). I placed a small metal bowl in it, and also glued a recycled open bottle next to it. Glue sticks go in the bottle. Glue gun lays pointed into the metal bowl. ***Important*** I always keep my gun plugged into an extension cord for ease of use no matter where I need to glue. When not in use, I lay the gun in, point in bowl, and coil the cord with extension around the bottle. Once a year or so, I pull the excess extruded glue out of the metal bowl. Stores easily, transports easily, and costs $00.00!

Well, I just found your very cool channel! And my glue gun has always given me a problem, and this is a good fix. Thank you thank you very much. Looking forward to see what else you’ve got going on.
