Make a Techie Name Badge

Step 5 Melt Glue

The magnetic metal (if any) goes in the tray, followed by enough hot-melt glue to make a decent thickness of glue after it's all melted. For this badge, which is about 4x0.75 inches, I used three "mini" sized sticks (5/16 inch diameter by 4 inches), which seemed about right. I used a sparkly glue stick for one of them, but it ended up underneath the keys and didn't show...

The key tray goes on a pan and into a toaster (or real) oven at about 250 to 300F till the glue is well melted.
