How to Fuse Plastic Bags into a Laptop Case

Step 3Fusing the bags

Fusing the bags
Open up the windows in the room you're in for ventilation and turn on your iron to a medium setting

Tear out two pieces of wax paper that are large enough to cover the plastic you're fusing.

Sandwich your plastic between the wax paper and begin ironing the wax paper, keeping it moving at all times. Iron each side for 20-30 seconds.

Remove the plastic from the wax paper and check for bubbles in the plastic which will lead to holes and tearing down the road for your laptop case.

Repeat this step for about 10 bags

TIP: You can also fuse logos from plastic bags onto your fused plastic
