Kapton Dispenser / Applicator

A holder for a 200mm wide kapton roll. It allows kapton to be applied to the glass of a heated printer bed without bubbles.

The design consists of hubs to fit into the kapton reel and brackets to support the reel and a remote M8 threaded rod.

In operation the tape is pulled from the reel and attached to the threaded rod (see pictures). The glass is then held up to the tape at the threaded rod end and the tape pressed onto the glass. the tape is then progressively rubbed down onto the glass
