I'm doing a project out of 1/4" Baltic birch and had some problems with grain lifting on narrow areas. I used blue painters tape on the bare wood and glued my paper pattern with contact cement on the tape. When I peeled the tape, with the help of a heat gun, slivers of the surface stayed on the tape. Can I use a sanding sealer or another product prior to applying the tape to help prevent this? I'll be spraying a light coat of stain followed by clear lacquer from a rattle can to finish. Thanks, Tom

Hey there everyone! Here's some pics of my latest completed project. Made them for a friend's grandson, and she said he saw the pic I sent her and he loved them. Always proud to hear someone likes my work! First is the Batman puzzle and the tray. Took the pic from one of the covers online, can't remember the artist but it's on the bottom of the puzzle in case the kid ever wants to look the artist up. I made a tray for it, because it's a fairly young child and his granny wanted somewhere for all the pieces to go when he's done. Painted the bat symbol on it with water based acrylic. Next was the Spiderman. Lather rinse repeat. This is only my second experience with photo puzzles, and I think they came out pretty good.
