Segmented Glueing Without Making a Mess

howgor

I make a lot of segmented bowls and pictures with many pieces glued together. Typically I use very thin laminate to glue on and try to wipe off the glue that gets on it, but usually there's enough build up that I have to throw it out. Gets costly to keep using these kinds of materials, wax paper gets messy. What methods do you folks use when needing to do a high volume of glue-ups??

Try putting a coat of Johnsons Paste was on your laminate and the glue will not stick to it. Works like a charm.

Cutting sheets. Should be flexible enough to just roll around when the glue is dry and it will pop right off.

I like the silicone bakers mat: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=silicone+baking+mat&gclid=CjwKCAjwwvfrBRBIEiwA2nFiPUG3StdAKLLMVNZVFDtqB8L5hh7qGyhH_FBF2o_0pt9qwzTDIlk7qBoCj6cQAvD_BwE&hvadid=176938065737&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=1026726&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=17956302340454194967&hvtargid=kwd-98429595&hydadcr=13935_9624584&tag=googhydr-20&ref=pd_sl_2kinkyq8go_e

I glue up on an old piece of laminate countertop, let the glue dry and scrape it off with a putty knife.

I’m a fairly spry 82-year-old who had been a reader/participant at WoodCentral since the demise of Badger Pond. I started visiting BP to learn something about finish for a project I’d completed and became hooked on internet forums as a way of increasing my knowledge about all sorts of topics. I have been a moderator for a couple other forums on subjects I enjoy. My interest in woodworking began in the early 1970’s when my wife and I had contractors add to our house near Traverse City, MI, and I ended up doing the trim work to reduce mounting costs. I had no tools. I bought a P-C skilsaw, hammer, screwdrivers and one of those wooden miter boxes with a backsaw. I made trim for windows and doors from one-by lumber and started my woodworking career. At the same time, I started a 50-year career as a ski instructor. I got onto the night shift at a mental hospital so I could ski days, and spent my 30s and 40s with that schedule. I eventually replaced the PC-upside-down-in-a-board with a real table saw and began the purchase of enough equipment to fill a jam-packed 40-foot shipping container we used after we sold our property in Michigan. The ski instructing had taken us to Colorado and we were spending too much on maintaining utilities for two homes. A couple years ago, the dozen years spent at 10,000 feet of elevation was making my body produce too many red blood cells, so we had to leave my “forever” home in the mountains and we moved back to Michigan. Now I have to find myself a shop space for all those tools in the container.
