Where did you get it?? I thought they quit making them years ago! Depends on what you're gluing up. If it EVA/Foam to EVA/Foam, you need to use contact cement. Cork to Cork. or cork to EVA , Rod Bond, or Titebond II or III. Mike (Southgate, MI) If I don't want to, I don't have to and nobody can make me (except my wife) cuz I'm RETIRED!! Re: JJ Jig wedges

Luis,
I tried some small wide rubber bands and did not like the way the rings came out, not strong enough to get a good tight bond. I bought some small elecrical wire ties today and will try those next. I think that is what my buddy Mike Barkley uses. Re: JJ Jig wedges

I thought Luis was talking about gluing the pieces back together to form the rings. Another idea that I had but haven't tried is to take a piece of PVC pipe and cut it in half, place the pieces together between the PVC and use a hose clamp to squeeze everything together. Re: JJ Jig wedges

Luis,
This is the technique I've been using to assemble cork wedges, using TiteBond III for glue. I use a removable dowel center post, inserted into a wooden base, and assemble the wedges about the dowel. Dowel diameter is less than 1/4 inch. Both dowel post and wooden base are waxed with paraffin. Glue is applied to one surface of wedges and wedges are arranged around center post. The last wedge requires glue on both opposing surfaces. PVC pipe, cut into rings (1/2 inch wide) are cut on one side so they can be expanded and fitted about the wedges. A nylon cable tie is placed around the PVC retaining ring and tightened. I'd be interested in other folks methods of doing this. Hope this helps. Stan PS: Depending on the checkered effect you want to acheive, you'll have to re-cut the glued-up wedges at least another time and repeat the above process with the second cuts. Also, you'll find that you'll need at least two sets of the wedges to get the patterns to match up.. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 03/17/2006 10:22PM by Stan Gregory. Re: JJ Jig wedges

buy Ray Allens book on woodturning segmented bowls everything you need to know is in there the approach to turning bowls is the same as making grips.Use hose clams and titebond 3 glue. Steve Re: JJ Jig wedges

In a pinch the top from spray paint can can be used.Cut a hole in the center so you can push the ring out after it is dry.The center part of the cap where it attaches to the can is the perfect size. Freddwhy (Rapt-Ryte) Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
