Thread: Dubl Duck Special #1, CA Desert Ironwood

It is similar to other woods.

For spreading the CA -- I came up with an awesome trick..

Take a ~3" long piece of clear packing tape -- the nice, thick 3M stuff...the cheapo stuff is..well..cheap...

stick the tape to your index finger, and wrap it so that it is PERFECTLY smooth on the pad of your finger (no tape seams, etc..)

Now, you have full control over the spreading process, can turn your finger around those little edges.... Far superiour to any sort of spreading device (brush, sponge, toothpick, etc)

When you are done spreading, that piece of tape goes straight in the trash.

I also put together a little stand from scrapwood and some 3" screws ground to very small diameter points to fit into pivot holes.
