Heat Strips

[Glenn Newell]

Does anybody have any experience with Binghams Laminating Press Heat Strip System. I wanted to find out the pros and cons with the heat strips. At present I am using a hot box but I thought this migh do a better job, thanks...Glenn...

Glenn ,I have been using the heat strip system (Purchased from Mike Fedora) for about 15 yrs. Besides the initial $ spent on the strips , I have nothing but positive things to say about the heat strips . I agree with Doug , If you are only going to build a couple of bows I would stay with the hot box.

Thanks a lot for the advice, I will go ahead and order them. I do make bows for my main income but I am just looking at doing things better...Glenn...

Glenn,

We use heat strips on just about everything we do.  Sets the glue much faster and moves productivity in the shop along a bit.

Thanks for that Mike, I was hoping the heat strips would speed the glueing process up. I will give Binghams a ring in a couple of days, I have some new bow modles I have developed and want to go into production with...Glenn...
