I'm in a bind and I need a crimp for sealing shrink wrap. I thought it
might be a fun little project and it should be easy, but I am very new
to electronics. I think what I need is nichrome wire, but I don't know
what type. Does anyone know if the nichrome wires are "live"? in
otherwords do I need to encase the wire or can it be exposed? It
shouldn't need to get hot enough to start a fire, only melt and seal
the shrinkwrap. So, here's my plan: electrical outlet to one end of
wire to a dimmer (to control heat) and back to the outlet. Will this
work?
