- Dino’s Tinker Shed, S2-Ep22. Repairing cracked plastic with a stapler?
In this episode I review a plastic stapler, not a stapler made of plastic but rather a stapler made to repair plastic parts such as car bumpers, snowmobile hoods, motocross fenders or just about anything made of plastic that has broken.
This stapler cost me around $35.00 Canadian on Amazon and was one of the least expensive units I found. It is a no name brand but is a claimed 50 watts and also came with around 100 “stapples’ in four different shapes.

I learn so much in your shed Dino. What a surprise this tool is, have to get one for my shed given I have 4 boys!
It's a handy tool for sure. Glad you enjoy the content and thanks for the comment.

Hey Dino, neat tool and great demonstration!
Although it's strong enough on its own, try using a soldering iron and steel wool for extra strength.
I shattered one of the side fairings (into about 7 pieces) on my KLX300 four+ months ago and the steel wool heated/pushed into the hidden side of the fairing is incredibly strong!
Still holding up even after riding tight trails with lots of branches AND after a few falls. 👍🏽
Happy First youtube Birthday!!!! I've loved watching you at work. Your videos are fuss free, informative, entertaining and very well constructed. I never fail to learn something. I'm not sure where you thought you would be at the start of year 2 but if you are disappointed please don't be. You have many loyal fans. Looking forward to to what DTS has to offer in year 2 !!!!!!!!! And btw following your safari tank install video made the job I did yesterday for the first time so much easier.
Wow, thank you very much, I never figured someone would pick up my UA-cam birthday!
I am really glad you are enjoying the content as much as I enjoy making it, It has been a fun first year and the fans make it all worth it, it really feels more like friends than fans and I feel the channel is as much yours as mine.
Thank you again, you made my day 😃.
Dino
@@DinosTinkerShed You're welcome. 😀
Man I wish these had been available when I was a kid in the 70's/80's. I sure broke a lot of plastic lol
Gee thanks Dino. Another tool I didn't know I needed but now want. Very impressive. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Glad you find it interesting.
Dino
That would be handy to have around the shop for so many things, great video Dino.
Thank you Kelly, it is a neat tool for sure.
Dino
well done Dino
Thank you Susie!
Dino
Gee that is a handy tool. Useful info. Thanks Dino.
Thank you Mal
Dino
That’s a fun tool! I can think of many uses for sure. Also it looks satisfying to smoosh it into the plastic lol
Smooshing is fun for sure!
Dino
Wow, how clever. Cant say ive thought of such a solution. Im gonna have to keep this in mind.
Edit:
By the way since im the first comment, i just wanna say that the production quality of your videos is incredible! And then I looked at your short backlog! I dont know who does the editing/filmography but it seems like they have experience! Have to imagine its you Dino.
Anyway, just swapped a 78 CT90 for a 2012 DR650 and your videos have been a great help! Thanks for making them!
Glad you found the videos interesting and helpful and congratulations on your new DR650!
I do all the filming and editing myself, I started about a year ago now I guess and am learning as I go, its nice to get positive feedback on the content, I see it so much it's hard to gauge its quality so thank you very much.
Dino
I know you were giving us a simple demo but I would have gone the whole hog and firstly glued with cyanoacrylate then used your staples then smear JB weld over then filed flush to see how tough it got. I reckon it could have possibly been just as good as before . The ultimate test would have been the kids. Well done. I enjoyed that vid Dino.
Glad you enjoyed it. Maybe I'll do an ultimate plastic repair vid lol

Hey Dino. Condolences, sorry you lost your dog mate.
Thanks, it's been almost a year and we still miss him ACD are the best dogs for sure.
Guys and our gadgets. You still got them hockey skills, Dino. Nice vid but (not sure if it's you or UA-cam) a lot of adds...
The adds are a bit of both, in order to receive some return on the videos I have to have the adds, I hope you understand, I would have them add free if I could.
Dino
You've convinced me, now where's
my wallet?!?
LOL nice 👍
