Here are the key facts extracted from the text, numbered and in short sentences, without opinions:
**Life Hacks and DIY**
1. Superglue can be instantly hardened with soda to create a durable white polymer.
2. Alternating layers of superglue and soda can bond almost anything.
3. Superglue and thread can create a durable material for filling voids or reinforcing connections.
**Tool Modification**
4. A plastic cutter can be made by modifying a soldering iron.
5. To make the cutter, remove the soldering iron's tip and sharpen 1cm of the remaining metal.
**Storage and Organization**
6. Plastic boxes with customizable shelves can be used for efficient storage.
7. Self-adhesive labels can be created using a graphic editor and printed on A4 paper.
**Printer Specifications**
8. The Canon i-SENSYS MF543x laser printer can print 43 pages per minute.
9. The same printer can scan both sides of a document in one pass.
10. The printer is controlled by a color touch display and supports NFC, Android, and iOS devices.
**Soldering**
11. Some wire insulations can be soldered directly with a soldering iron.
12. Certain insulations (e.g., Soviet mgtf) can be burned with a lighter under a hood.
13. A turbo lighter can be used to shrink heat shrink without producing smoke.
14. Twisting solder into a spiral can make it last longer.
**Glycerin Flux**
15. Glycerin flux cleans the soldering iron tip and helps it tin better.
16. Applying glycerin flux to cellulose cups enhances tip cleaning.
17. Pharmaceutical glycerin or vape liquid can be used as alternatives to commercial glycerin flux.
**Hot Melt Glue and Wire Repair**
18. Hot melt adhesive can be used to fill free space after soldering and insulating wires.
19. Combining hot melt glue with heat shrink creates a strong, water-resistant joint.
**Repurposing Items**
20. Empty 3D printer filament spools can be used as organizers for small items.
21. Boxes from 3D printer filament can be used to store packages more efficiently.
**Cleaning**
22. A glass, straw, and jewelry attachment for a vacuum cleaner can be used to clean narrow spaces.
23. A commercial alternative for this trick is a specialized vacuum cleaner attachment available on AliExpress.
**Thermal Paper**
24. Thermal paper (used in address labels and cash register receipts) contains ink that can be activated by heat.
25. Heating thermal paper (e.g., with a turbo lighter or soldering hair dryer) can erase printed information.
