Get Yourself an Affordable Cordless Hot Glue Gun

Using a hot glue gun in your vivarium design process can be a game-changer.

When it comes to assembling your hardscape, especially pieces like wood and cork bark, a hot glue gun is a fantastic tool that saves you a significant amount of time.

Unlike silicone, which can take hours to dry and securely attach your hardscape, hot glue dries in seconds, allowing you to experiment and adjust your layout much more efficiently.

With the quick-drying nature of hot glue, you can easily hold your hardscape pieces in place while you fine-tune your design. This rapid bonding ability makes the process faster and more convenient, enabling you to explore different layouts and arrangements easily.

It can also be removed, giving you the freedom to experiment and iterate on your vivarium design until you achieve the desired result.

While the hot glue gun provides initial stability, it’s important to note that it is not a substitute for a more permanent solution.

To ensure a strong and long-lasting hold, it’s recommended to follow up with a generous application of silicone. This additional step reinforces the bond and provides the necessary durability for your vivarium.

By combining the benefits of both hot glue and silicone, you can achieve a secure and visually appealing hardscape that enhances the overall aesthetics of your vivarium.
