Gluing the Clasp on a Razor Blade Bracelet

Video Transcript

"JASON HARRIS: Hi, I'm Jason with ExpertVillage.com. We've just got done putting our clasp on the razorblade which is the charm of our bracelet. And as you can see, we still have to close this just like a safety pin. We've got plenty of room to close it, but my fingers aren't strong enough so we're going to have to use the pliers. So after we close it with the pliers, we're going to also want to put a little bit of glue just in this part, just where the hole in the safety pin is. And the reason we're going to do that is because when the glue dries, you won't be able to see it and it will keep the metal post inside of there. It won't come out. And the reason you don't want it to come out, you don't want somebody pushing it and I'm pushing it like a safety pin because it will just break. And if you put glue in there, they won't be able to push it. So take your pliers, just push down on the post. Just try to close this like a regular safety pin. It's a bit tricky but--there you go, got it. And as you can see, we've got it closed just like a regular safety pin. Oh, hold on. It's not all the way in there. Now we've got it closed just like a regular safety pin, and it's not going to go anywhere as long as we glue it. So we'll just take that same glue that we used before and just put a tiny, tiny dab in there. Here's something to spread it around with. Got a little bit more than I wanted, so I'm just going to even the glue out everywhere. And this glue is clear, so when it dries, you won't even be able to see there's glue in there but it will keep the post all inside. The only thing you do want to make sure you do is I did use the coaxial cable, the wire still going to have to go through there. So make sure that the glue is inside of the hole rather than the outside, so we can still put wire through. Look through to make sure that the glue is not there. We can still put a piece of wire through. And now all we have to do is to let that dry, and next we will do the clasp for the back of the necklace."
