Shotgun Fruiting Chamber
    #23990137 - 01/07/17 05:00 PM (7 years, 23 days ago)

So I was drilling the holes for my shotgun fruiting chamber and I accidentally cracked the plastic a little bit. Should I seal this up with tape or perhaps something better?

Sorry if the image is shitty, I tried taking the best photo I could with my phone, my phone is about to break.

Tape will not do very much. When you get a crack like that it risks growing larger with subsequent handling of the tub, i.e. the crack will "run" in the same direction as it is already going.

If it was me I would get a red hot nail, or other heated object and gently and carefully make additional holes at the ends of all the cracks, i.e. at the very end of the running crack. As this new hole is melted it will usually end up locally thick as the melting plastic retreats. The holes will prevent the crack from being able to "run" any more.

Go slow and easy or you risk the crack running more while trying to make the new hole. You could hold up something at the back to prevent the plastic flexing, any flexing will definitely make it want to "run".
