My New Heat Sealing Iron for Welding TPU Coated Fabrics

In this video I introduce my digital "leather iron" and show how to modify it for use as a heat sealing iron. There are several sellers of these irons on Aliexpress.com and Amazon.com at any given time, but the brand names are inconsistent - just go to those sites and search for "leather iron" and pick one that looks similar to the one in this video. If you're in North America, choose the 110V version (it should have the correct plug, so you won't need to buy an adapter). On Alixpress, the cost is usually about $25 USD including shipping from China, and they take about two weeks to arrive. The price is usually higher on Amazon but it might arrive faster, depending on where it ships from.
