    I would love an adjustable heat pen, but I've had good luck with a woodburning kit I picked up from Sears. Woodburning

    I wish it had adjustable temperatures, but if you're slow and careful it does work. It has several ends, including flat ends etc...

          I tried using a heated wire once to repair the straps on the Green Arrow quiver
          but the plastic melts away from the contact point.

          I have yet to find a glue that will hold well since the contact point between
          the purse and the belt points are SO tiny.

            That's why digital heat control is kind of essential for it.

              I found a perfect solution (for now anyway)! I bought the batgirl Luey (Greg) was selling for $125. I needed the silk screen wonder woman too so I saved on shipping - I think I spent half that on various glues anyway

              I should have asked Dr. Mego first

              By the way - If anyone needs to glue anything around the house lmk

              I did find a really good fabric adhesive - mighty mendit!
