The plastic riser, which ran around the inside edge of the frame, was removed so that everything can sit flush with the front glass.īlutack was used to hold the internals (now all stuck together) to the frame. The plastimorph was regrettably abandoned, and more tape was used instead. Here it all is put together and sitting in the frame.Īs much as I’m a fan of being untidy, this is going a bit too far. I’ve used the plastimorph to create some brackets to hold the screen onto the perspex sheet, which is simply taped to the shroud, which usually sits inside the picture frame. The heat melts the plastic granules into a clump, which you can then shape with your hands. Plastimorph! You put the granules in boiling water (which is what’s in that jar), wait a minute, and in return, you get plastic you can shape, which will set hard. I’ve marked the screen corners, so I know not to place any tape over where it will show through on the other side.
