what kind of tape do you use for double sided tape? I used carpet tape on a project and it was a pain to take off.
thanks
I buy the stuff sold as “turner’s tape” from Rockler and Woodcraft. It is also a pain to take off. 🙂
Ditto to that on the tape. I have gotten from Rockler, Woodcraft, and Craft Supplies and it is all hard to take off. I actually find small pieces of it placed at the corners of the workpiece to be better than one big piece.
video content sounds amazing, only wish i could afford to donate to you guys,#studentproblems, joking aside, so much useful content.
