Folks, please watch this video, see the stripe at 24.22 min:

How do you glue tapes?

Hi Dalek, It was over ten years ago and I can't remember the details, but I definitely did it and they worked. I have never used glue on tapes, in fact I don't know what you mean by that.
Hi Steve,
Because VHS tapes have no metallic stop stipes, the new tape (VHS) has to be
connected with the end-pieces of the old tape.
VHS tapes were controlled with transparent end-pieces.
I remember at my post where I point to the stripe in the video.

Regards,
German Dalek
