Re: whats the glue used for this?

It's not glue, it's double face tape. 

I used carpet mounting tape and it works great it seems to survive the high temperatures of the heater just fine.

To print or, 3D print, that is the question...
SD3 printer w/too many mods,  Printrbot Simple Maker Ed.,  FormLabs Form 1+
AnyCubic Photon, Shining 3D EinScan-S & Atlas 3D scanners...
...and too much time on my hands.

Thanks.
I dont know where to find such a tape in Russia.
Maybe I just dont know how its called locally. There are two sided tapes but they are very thick.
