I’ve used Lepage’s (I think that is the brand) spray glue and it seems to hold okay. -- "Checking for square? What madness is this! The cabinet is square because I will it to be so!" Jeremy Greiner LJ Topic#20953 2011 Feb 2 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub6PsY4cgwg I saw this trick with masking tape and super glue. Interesting to say the least. -- Phillip- Measure twice, cut onc.... Hey look, it's rustic. |

I went to Home Depot and told them I wanted 2 sided carpet tape. I was told that they had several grades, so I bought the stickiest tape they had. I have to be careful not to use too much. That stuff has some serious grip. |

Kirk, I’ve done that too, but it seems that it’s never extremely stable for some of the crazier patterns. -- Phillip- Measure twice, cut onc.... Hey look, it's rustic. |

I use Surtape from Lowes. It comes in a blue and white box. It is thin and holds extremely well. -- Bob |

I use Shurtape from Lowes as well. They used to sell a version that released very cleanly. The indoor / outdoor carpet tape they sell now is a bit gummy, but holds quite firmly. I find that using a few pieces 1-2” long holds well and releases easier than long strips. -- Willie, Washington "If You Choose Not To Decide, You Still Have Made a Choice" - Rush |

Thanks guys I’m going to remember these. I’ve looked for a good brand and haven’t found anything where I live. |

Double-sided masking tape is my favorite. I buy it because it doesn’t gum up cutters when it’s in the cutting path of a machine. -- See my work at http://remmertstudios.com and http://altaredesign.com |

I use what I would call double-sided masking tape as well. That’s what it looks like at least. I got it at Woodcraft. They call it turner’s tape at my store. -- Joe | Spartanburg, SC | "To give anything less than your best is to sacrafice the gift." - Steve Prefontaine |

if you would like what us turners use and really holds with just a few pieces try this and really just a few pieces is good or you will not get the piece separated https://www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/85/5833/Permacel-Double-Sided-Tape?term=double+sided+tape -- It is always the right time, to do the right thing. |

I used the masking tape and super glue trick this weekend. It worked surprisingly better than anything I have used before. I definitely want to try the turners tape next just to try something different. -- Phillip- Measure twice, cut onc.... Hey look, it's rustic. |
