TOP TIP & TRICKS

Scrollsaw bowl press

I make bowls by scroll sawing pieces from thinner stock and then laminating the layers together. To facilitate gluing up the stack, I made a press from two plywood disks connected with 12" bolts, washers, and wingnuts. The bottom disk is solid, but the top disk has an opening big enough for my hand to slip through. This opening allows me to clean up any glue squeeze-out before it has a chance to harden.
