Introduction: Hot Glue Caulking Tube Saver

About: I like to make.

This idea came to me when I was putting trim on and refinishing my mom's staircase and was caulking the corners.I only used half a tube and didn't want to waste the rest. Earlier that day I was at the thrift store and found a beefy hot glue gun for a couple bucks. So I thought of using it to seal up the end of the tube.

If you feel it's worthy vote and favorite.

Thanks for reading.

Step 1: Materials

Materials are pretty simple.

  • Hot glue gun with glue stick
  • Opened caulking tube.

That's it.

Step 2: Gluing Up

Just plug in the hot glue gun and wait for it to heat up.

Put a generous dab on the end of the caulking tube to cover the open hole.

Step 3: Finished

Let it solidify and you're good to go.

It should pop right off when you're ready to use it again.

Thought it would make a perfect entry for the Glue Contest.

Favorite and vote if you feel it's worthy.
