On this occasion we will use a Hot air gun (with a flat nozzle), a Bench vise, a Hacksaw frame (with 2 blades), a Binder clip, a plastic bag and finally something to pack up inside. Also a pair of scissors.

Make a Steady Base

Try to use any table to create a steady base for the project.

The Procedure

Sealing a plastic with a hot air gun

On this brief video I show you how to do it, join both blades by clipping the plastic bag on the hacksaw frame and right after that use the hot air gun a few seconds to push the plastic against the blades.

Final Result
