Completely unnecessary tape mod hack: Vacuum Sealing.
Are you (like me) just a little bit extra? Do you often make things WAY harder than they need to be? Have I got the keeb mod for you!
After applying each layer of tape to your pcb go ahead and throw the whole unit in a vacuum seal bag for MAXIMUM tape to board contact!
Will it make any noticeable difference? Probably not. Does it look awesome? Uh-huh! Does it scratch your itch of needing to feel different and sightly superior than the masses? Abso-fricken-lutely.
Do you then plunge it into a waterbath with an immersion circulator so you get to within 0.1 degree of ideal tape adherence temperature?
And be sure to add some woody herbs for a warm, welcoming feeling
Don't give me any ideas, I have an immersion circulator and this is exactly the stupid kind of shit that gets me in trouble with the wife.
Although now that you mention it, if I could figure out a good tempurature to increase the elasticity of the tape I could get a better seal around the chips and....... yeah prolly better not.
"yeah prolly better not." ...erm no, fuck you, do it!
You joke but this is genius for keeping Doritos crumbs from getting under the keys.
I'm now a vacuum seal convert
Big brain move
