Do you have a thing called a computer?

bk · « **Reply #211 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:07:21 PM »

Anyway, let me know what you find out.

George · « **Reply #212 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:12:53 PM »

Just PM'd. Let me try again on my computer. It's upstairs.

Computer might work better.

George · « **Reply #214 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:39:08 PM »

BK, did it work??

bk · « **Reply #215 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:40:42 PM »

It did!

George · « **Reply #216 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:43:51 PM »

Yay!!

George · « **Reply #217 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:45:05 PM »

Now that that's all taken care of, I can post about my Into the Woods CD project!

The 5-pack replacement CD trays that I ordered from Amazon arrived today!

I borrowed my sister's hot glue guns...she has several and just gave me the big box that contained them all.

George · « **Reply #220 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:47:08 PM »

The first attempt was not successful.

Page eight is no longer acceptable.

bk · « **Reply #222 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:49:37 PM »

Page nine should be around here somewhere.

bk · « **Reply #223 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:49:50 PM »

But knowing how this day has gone, who knows.

bk · « **Reply #224 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:49:56 PM »

Not I.

bk · « **Reply #225 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:50:04 PM »

I know not.

George · « **Reply #226 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:50:20 PM »

I hot glued the tray and it lined up well, but I wasn't able to remove the very thin glue strings which were left under the tray.

bk · « **Reply #227 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:50:23 PM »

Oh, we're quite a ways away.

bk · « **Reply #228 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:50:42 PM »

Continue the story and perhaps we'll get there. We have ten damn minutes.

Yes, this will take quite a few posts, and several photographs will be included.

Since I used the low temp hot glue, the glue started to cool before I was able to get the tray all completely lined up and applied, so it didn't quite stick as well as it should've.

I was able to very carefully remove it from the digipac, and that ripped the paper a bit, but I was able to cover the white part with markers of similar colors, so it's not really noticeable.

bk · « **Reply #232 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:53:29 PM »

Photos.

George · « **Reply #233 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:53:44 PM »

Then, since I ordered the 5-pack of trays, I was able to practice, which really helped.

George · « **Reply #234 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:54:07 PM »

I then decided to use the high-temp glue gun, which really made the difference!

George · « **Reply #235 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:54:45 PM »

I got it glued down, the rips are hardly noticeable, and the CD packaging looks like it's the kind of packaging that is should've been!

George · « **Reply #236 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:56:48 PM »

And here's the tray just set upon the case...no glue yet:

And here's the first attempt with the low-temp hot glue:

George · « **Reply #238 on:** March 10, 2023, 11:59:43 PM »

You can see the glue string and a scrape on the plastic where I unsuccessfully tried to pull out the glue string with tweezers.

George · « **Reply #239 on:** March 11, 2023, 12:00:39 AM »

Here's the re-do done with the high-temp hot glue:
