Wichman Posted November 24 Report Share Posted November 24 I was cutting out these ornaments this evening, stack of 5, 1/8" basswood, when I noticed that the stack had shifted ever so slightly. When I tried to feed the blade through the next pilot hole I couldn't because of the shift. My pilot holes in this were #65, .035"; so I used a #71 drill bit, .025" to get the hole realigned, then used three #65 drill bits to keep the whole thing aligned while I used hot glue to hold the silly thing together while I finished cutting. Yea, it worked. danny, MarieC, OCtoolguy and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted November 24 Report Share Posted November 24 Never thought about using a drill bit in the hole like that.. I've had this happen before and run a couple wood screws into scrap areas then remove them and put the screws back in the box when finished. Haven't had this issue since I started using pin nails to hold the stacks.. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny Knappen Posted Tuesday at 04:35 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 04:35 PM I use double sided tape for stack cutting with no problems. Just be sure the tape is on the waste area. I have it on the website. Here is a link: Hand Held ATG Tape | Pegas scroll saw OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scotch tape had more stretch. Lesson learned. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted Tuesday at 05:42 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:42 PM When I stack cut, I use small nails in waste areas, so I do not have to worry about shifting. That is in addition to taping. OCtoolguy and MarieC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does "Hand Held" mean as applied to tape? Ditto "Wound in Reverse"? Is this double-sided tape? OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does "Hand Held" mean as applied to tape? Ditto "Wound in Reverse"? Is this double-sided tape? This is atg "tape" (adhesive transfer gun). I've used this extensively at work, 25+ years. It's an adhesive put on a slick backing, when you press the adhesive down you then lift the backing leaving only the thin layer of adhesive. Most versions of the tape are designed to be used in a dispenser called a tape gun. Some versions are designed to be used without a gun. There are different levels of strength of adhesive; light, medium, high, and "oh my God, it's never going to move". OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wichman Posted Wednesday at 02:33 PM Author Report Share Posted Wednesday at 02:33 PM Also; reverse wound refers to the adhesive being on the inside of the backing when first opened, as opposed to being on the outside, which is common on the tape designed for a gun.
