Segmenting Glue Up Form / Mould / Clamp Aid

[DaveTas]

Someone on this site designed this and posted pictures, and I just wanted to let them know I made one and I appreciate their efforts - but I can't find the original post! I think this speaks to the vagueness of what you call this thing.. and glue is too common a search term.. thus I've tried to tag & stick some terms in the description to help people find it.. If someone finds the original post I am happy if this post is deleted or attributed/linked to the original..

Its HDPE so CA doesn't adhere, with a gap for squeeze out etc. I changed nothing from the original design post I can't find..

Yep, that would be me. I'm very happy with the one I built, use it all the time. Glad I inspired you to build one. Super simple and extremely helpful.

How does this work?

I just allows you to glue up segments, helping you to keep things square. I use little mini bar clamps.

Fair enough. Just not having seen one of these before or one used I am just not able to really visualize how it works.

Thanks Ken. I just wanted to say I appreciated your post. I just couldn't find it again, I didn't think to search for "gluing" :-(

I'm actually glad this thread resurfaced - I remember seeing Ken's gluing jig a year ago and thinking "I need to make one of those", and then promptly forgot. I will add this to my "to-do" list. Thanks Ken!
