Title: Easy way to cut a stack of wood. hot glue gun
Post by: Lorace on February 18, 2016, 01:42:27 am

I am working on a new whirligig.   and when cutting out my propellers,  instead of using tape.   ( which I was out of... and found this worked)
I got my hot glue gun out. and just did a few drops on each piece of wood,  just made sure it was in the inside of my cutting area.  and it worked so good.   and then I just was able to flick the glue off.   was a lot faster then tape,  and did not have to stop to re tape to keep all together.

Excellent tip!  I use my hot glue gun to hold the two pieces of wood together while doing double bevel inlay.  After doing the inlay cut,I cut them apart with a razor knife.
