In order to deliver a quality product to my off site customers, I like to pack my finished rods in plastic tubing.
To close the bag, I have either taped or stapled the bag close.

However, I had the pleasure of receiving an Impulse Sealer today to seal the ends of the bags.

If any of you folks do the same thing for your finished rods, you might consider the purchase of such a sealer.
The slick thing about the impulse sealers, is that you can leave them plugged in all of the time and they are effectivly turned off.

Then, when needed, simply place the end of the tube in the sealer, drop the bar, the bar heats for a couple of seconds, turns off the heat and the bag is sealed.
Very simple, quick, easy and air tight.

Give one a try and I think you and your customers will be pleased.

p.s.
Here is a picture to better illustrate the product if you are not familiar with the machine.
