Heat Shrink Tubing Rusty, yes, drinking straws can be used as heat-shrink tubing. I've used them for that. They also heat seal well, and I use large-diameter "bubble tea" drinking straws with heat seale... |

Grosgrain I have some 1" grosgrain that I can't break with my hands. The tensile strength is probably greater than 150 lbs. On this pack I'll be using a lot of 3/4" grosgrain, and I only pl... |
