An idea for holding stuff

simple and effective, kinda obvious when you see it :doh:

Didn't see him do any end grain hollowing. That would've tested the glue's strength/bond. Has anyone tried this? I'm not convinced.

I agree, Brendan. I thought he was going to make a little goblet, then he made a top. I wanta see him hollow end grain with that glue-up.

[Texian]

+1 what they said. Guess I'll just keep using the chuck. No glue to buy and do not have to turn a top while waiting for it to set up.

Brenden, over the years I've followed this method quite a bit but had only one piece that had a glue joint failure. It was my fault as I had not put the correct amount of glue on the face, so the joint was glue starved and eventually broke.
I definatley endorse this method:2tsup:

We used to do a lot of work this way. Scoops mainly but used PVA and very rarely had a failure.

Problem was they had to dry for 24 hrs.

I never thought to use superglue.

The main thing to remember with this is that the surfaces must be as flat as you can get them.

Neat.

Pity CA is so damned expensive here.

[dai sensei]

Yep I have used CA this way and it works.

Warning though, use the good stuff, not that washed out cheap $2 for 8 little tube pack stuff

[rsser]

Yeah, I like the bargain shop stuff for wicking into checks. Not for anything more serious.

That said, I've had a pack of the little tubes none of which set. Talk about all dressed up and nowhere to go ;-}

We could do a bulk order, it works out much cheaper last time I looked

I would rather face and true the base block and turn the blank round, turn a tenon on the end and then CA the tenon into a hole in the base block. Now days I just clamp the square blank into a scroll chuck.
