What is Reddit's opinion of Tapes Master 1" x 36 Yds 1 Mil Kapton Tape – Polyimide High Temperature Tape with Silicone Adhesive - 3” Core?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I'm guessing that shroud is to prevent things from shorting out on the heatsink. You could get a roll of Kapton tape and make your own heatsink shroud. Kapton is high temp electrical insulation tape made for using inside electronic devices. https://www.amazon.com/Mil-Kapton-Tape-Polyimide-yds/dp/B006ZFNB2I

Pro-tip. Apply Kapton Tape to either side of the cable and carefully cut the excess so it looks normal. The cable becomes nearly unbreakable with almost no noticeable change in thickness.

I bought a broken New 3DS online and used it to experiment for my tech repair job about a year ago (shop had a policy of "if you can fix it, we can offer the repair to customers," no one else at the shop would go near 3DSs, and I wanted to become a valuable employee). Found this worked REALLY well.

Kapton Tape is fucking magical. It's everything you wish Electrical Tape was.

Also the metal ring pops out of both sides of the hinge, so pop it free and feed it over the cable, instead of the cable through.

Get some kapton tape and wrap it around the microphone contact (furthest from the tip). This way it will no longer make contact with the 1/4" adaptor.

Of course this will only work if the 1/4" adaptor still contacts the ground contact (third from the tip) which I assume it will. If not, you can try another 1/4" adaptor like drummwill suggested.

A 2260 card should fit in a 2280 slot. Typically you'd move the screw, but failing that you can get a 20mm spacer/extender that attaches to the SSD, then further back to the 2280 screw. Failing that.. get some kapton tape and tape it down! I recommend kapton tape specifically because it doesn't leave any nasty residue, even under high-temperature conditions.

You can buy kapton tape on amazon.

If you're trying to make your own flex circuits, you might be better off just using high gauge wiring. Or using strands from lower gauge stranded wire

Dennys Wang advises removing the tape around your lcd and replacing it with something thinner like this.

In all these years with dozens of Pi's and others, I've never once had an ESD problem.

What is your use case?

A few things.

1. Check continuity. Need to make sure that all of the connections are reaching their intended destinations. If not, you would need to patch past the damaged areas (run small wires past where the trace is damaged).
2. Apply solder mask. This is kind of optional. All of the areas where the white mask has been removed are potential points of shorts. You can get UV activated solder mask and reapply it. Or, you can just put some Kapton tape down under the new PCB.
3. For soldering in general, review this series of videos. Don't let their age fool you, they're great for understanding the fundamentals.

Again, up to you how much of a project you want this to be.

Use Kapton tape

The original USB thumb drive does nothing that a new one cant. Just make sure you format it (FAT32 with MBR)

Changing the screen is cake. The tape used to secure it doesn't re-adhere very well, and is also kind of bad to begin with. Replace it with Kapton tape (https://www.amazon.com/Mil-Kapton-Tape-Polyimide-yds/dp/B006ZFNB2I). This will keep resin from getting under the lcd should something leak.

Replace the vat with a Sovol Resin Vat (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CJZ711T/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_D7M0855PTGGVZSJPNC16?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) They come with a nice little storage solution (you can keep resin in them!) and only cost about 5 bucks more than an AnyCubic factory FEP replacement (the vat comes preloaded with a FEP) I suggest getting the two pack.

Was it this? Or am I thinking of something else?

Additionally, you can change out kapton tape for something like gorilla tape for less money.
