Don't bother, just put the prettiest one in the front. [] @maceffects, now we need a batch of 16MB SIMMs that look really nice from the front. Red PCBs would definitely make them faster. []Make all my SIMMs match.
I use TECBOND 248 for both capacitor glue and and for bonding the speaker to the front panel of the Mac SE series. I probably wouldn't use the cheap stuff that comes with a gun or from Walmart. That said it would probably still work.Great video! About the glue, pretty sure it’s regular old hot glue. Nothing special.
In most cases the stuff that comes with a glue gun is a sort of generic all purpose glue. It will bond everything but isn't as good as an application specific glue. TECBOND 248 is acrylic based and designed for various applications as well but it does very good at bonding smooth surfaces. I did probably mischaracterize Walmart, they may sell comparable glue.Not to totally derail this, but MacEffects, why would you recommend against it?
If it's white, try melting it with the tip of a hot glue gun. If it doesn't budge, it's silastic silicone and moisture cures at room temperature, it's not applied like hot glue.Great video! About the glue, pretty sure it’s regular old hot glue. Nothing special.
You may be right, and I've not yet recapped my power supply. I suppose I'll need to re-watch @JDW comprehensive video and make it happen.If it's white, try melting the white stuff with the tip of a hot glue gun.

That said, I've seen a lot of clear hot melt glue on Compact Mac Analog Boards. They're not subjected to the high temps found inside power supply cans, so it should probably be fine if it's really needed at all for a display machine.
Here is the link he posted for capacitor list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18X-EN67lQdZ2crCBAlkHrtqCCoJK6cLw_BkIYdlJvgs/edit#gid=0Inside a PSU can, you can bet on it. It's @JDW's thread, so I'm sure he'll chime in soon without you needing to wade through the video just for that answer. []
I need to do the same to my SE/30 and SE, has he or anyone else got a list of part numbers from Mouser or Digi-Key for the task?
