Interesting hot rhinestone applicator
🕑 Added 2024-12-08 01:40:11 +0000 UTCAnother mass produced technical delight. Someone suggested I look at one of these, but I can't remember who it was.
The device has a very functional construction inside that is reminiscent of a glue gun, which kinda fits, since it does heat the rhinestones to melt the layer of hot melt glue on the back.
I liked this enough that I bought another one. I could see other uses than studding gems on clothing.

Interesting. I wondered what Diamantine was

As soon as I realised that the American term for diamante is rhinestone, that song popped right into my head.

The big ones were hard to remove, but the small ones could be dragged off with enough force. I should maybe have heated them longer.

But, how well were they stuck on?

The tooth test suggests glass, and I failed to ignite one too.

Some rhinestones are made of plastic, this must work with the glass ones.
