Attaching LPD8806 to things

Post by imasonaz »

Hello everyone
I am attempting to attach the water resistant sheath that the LPD8806 comes in to a piece of wood to make it more stable. Strapping it to it is not ideal, I'd like to have it be removable. So far I've tried superglue, hot glue, and simple adhesive. None have even hinted at sticking. So, I'm searching for suggestions! If anyone has does something similar to this with them, or has any ideas, please tell me.

Thank you

Strapping is still best, but you can try either silicone-based sealant/caulk, or Sugru. Oh! Someone mentioned carpet tape, too. Beefy double-stick stuff.
