To paint the picture...I'm currently working at a printers, still not found anything long term since my redundancy last October. Anyway...they make wrapping paper, coasters, custom t-shirts etc. A special tape is used to keep things in place while under the heat press. Had a small brain wave today, and wondered how the tape would react to soldering. A small experiment with low heat solder has worked!!! Might be very useful for holding multiple parts together! 6 Roll 10m High Temp Tapes - YTBUBOR Polyimide Film Adhesive Tape Multi-Width 0.4/0.6/0.8/1/1.2/2cm, Worked Well for Masking, Soldering, Powder Coating, Printing PCB Board and Packing Fixing https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07LGX6YYM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_RH1YY4H5VWKTQKNSQKNH

Carr’s have sold hot tape for years, but that is a seriously cheap offer. Great find.
 
Great info Jack. Perfect for PE always have problems holding bits & pieces.

Got hold of a roll 5mm on Ebay for £2:95. Got to wait a month but there we are.
