ATG Gun

Every scrapbooker/crafter should have one of these! And, of course, make it your own by adding a little BLING! I mean, why not?

Top Ten Reasons Why I *HEART* My ATG Gun:

  1. It's large enough that it doesn't get lost under all my crap--I mean--works of art.
  2. It actually holds enough adhesive to get through even one of MY projects.
  3. Using it burns calories (the kind of exercise I like!).
  4. Supplies are less expensive by the yard than other adhesives which means I can buy more crap--I mean--needed supplies.
  5. It scares Scrapmonsters away.
  6. It's easy enough for even ME to load.
  7. It can't be mistaken for eye-drops like glue bottles can. Ouch! (Urban Legend? You decide.)
  8. The bigger the gun the more BLING!
  9. It gets me into the only 'sticky' situation I want to be in.
  10. It makes all my non-ATG friends jealous!! :)

There are lots of great YouTube videos that show you how to alter your ATG. Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_HFg4iC57c&feature=fvst

I purchased my ATG Gun from FramingSupplies.com. There are a few models to choose from. I purchased the 714 that only holds the 1/4" tape (no adapters to mess with!): http://www.framingsupplies.com/3M/TapeDispenserGuns.htm

You can get supplies from FramingSupplies.com or where 3M products are sold . I use the Acid Free 3M 908 GOLD 1/4"x 36 yds.: http://www.framingsupplies.com/3M/3MATGTape.htm
If you choose another style of gun, be sure the tape fits your gun.
