[6pack] Tape Question

I don't see a big problem with using a small section of heat shrink to secure
the ends of the loom wrap. You should be easily able to cut that off if you
needed to. Heat shrinking the whole loom would be a different story and
something of a challenge !

Bob,

Just a suggestion:  I too have found that electrical tape when exposed to
heat and just 'use', will tend to curl.  I have not given it much thought,
just maybe adding some fresh tape to solve the problem.  My concern with
using something like heat shrink tubing is that sure, it will look like a
million bucks and solve the problem forever but then what will happen if you
ever need to take that tape off?  Eventually a day will come when the tape
needs to come off for either a repair or refurbishment.  Having something
permanent like heat shrink would be difficult at best to remove...

Just a thought...
