Joining elastic bungee cord.

[Boyan Silyavski]

Best would be if you join then via small hot melt casting. The way a USB or 3mm jack cable ends. You can use good high temp heat glue gun/190-220C/, make small 2 piece aluminum mold and inject the hot melt - Polyamide Sticks - TEC Bond 7718 , thats what i use.

Dont forget to leave small air escape hole/0.5mm or similar/ and use 2 pins to center the mold. Or maybe not, the air will escape through the bungee cord


I have done that and works, i have cast things as big as wheel over 2 skate bearings using 80W gun. You will find a good ~200w gun extremely easy to work with


There are other sizes, you have to calculate if its worth but 12mm works ok for small details. Otherwise i would jump to bulk melt gun
