Seal-A-Meal
« on: May 05, 2009, 08:59:00 PM »
Has anybody tried using a seal-a-meal as a vacuum press for gluing risers?  I did a riser with some accent stripes and it worked great.  Just shrink wraped a few turns to keep everything in place and then vacuumed and sealed.  I did a test piece with regular wood glue and it took forever to cure, no way for the moisture to escape.  But worked great with Smooth on.  Heating not a problem,the bags are designed to be boiled.  Haven't tried any irregular shapes yet, but plan on it.
