"...It does take some time to heat up completely - 10 minutes or so...." Read more

I’ll leave my old review below because I feel like it’s cheating to remove, but I take it all back. The fuse is s tool you need in your crafting arsenal and it is handy to create and seal pockets in scrapbooks. Love it, and love the responsive CS more. Great company.

This is a pain in the rear to use. The holder thing doesn't hold it very well, and at the smallest bump and you are at risk of a burning hot piece of metal falling into your work surface. Second, there are no temperature controls, so I either burn through my project or can't get a seal. I've tried all sorts of different plastics and it's very hard to get one that works right. I was making some sand and shell mini-beaches, and I had to plug it in, wait ten minutes for it to heat up, use it swiftly to seal, pour the stuff in, seal the remaining opening just hoping it didn't melt a hole (which it did most time), then unplug it so it doesn't get too hot to burn, cool it down again and start all over on the next one.
It's a lot of work and stress to seal some sequins in a pocket.
Still, I WANT to seal sequins in a pocket so I keep trying. But I hope the good people at WRMK are reading this and decide to design a new one that has a temperature control. We also we need some instructions on which brand of sheet protectors and plastics will actually seal without melting. I've seen people successful with sandwich baggies, and I can't seem to be successful with a Becky Higgins pocket page.
I don't know if everybody who is making this works has some special crafty magic, or mine is defective. It definitely doesn't seem to hold a steady temperature. It's a good idea for a product but it needs some work.
Maybe I'll go check out the wood burning tools people keep talking about.
I'd recommend using a glass cutting mat because it's hard (and heat-resistant) and the "wheel" of the fusing tip slides nicely over a hard surface. My cutting mat has a grid pattern on it which is very helpful to line up the page protector and ruler stencil so the seams are straight.
The tool gets VERY hot, so be careful. It's a lot lighter than I expected, so you also need to be careful that the weight of the cord doesn't pull the tool somewhere you don't want it to go (like your arm!). Use the little stand provided - that helps, but it's still somewhat flimsy.
It does take some time to heat up completely - 10 minutes or so. I was too excited when I first unboxed it, and let it heat for about 4 minutes and that wasn't long enough to seal the plastic. Be patient and wait, and you will be rewarded by nice clean strong seams :)
It works well on both the American Crafts and Becky Higgins Project Life page protectors. If you want a really good, strong seam, you can seal the seam on both sides.
I have used it with a metal ruler instead of the short ruler stencil for longer seams and it works, but the stencil is definitely easier as it has a "groove" to keep the tool in place.
My wish list: a place to store the tips *with* the tool itself as they are tiny, and a longer ruler stencil (12" would be dreamy). I'd also like the option to buy some of the wider fusing tips I've seen (the HSN bundle seems to have multiple-width tips).

You do have to be aware of the pressure you apply too as if the wheel doesn't spin it won't make a good seal
