Re: Please Help which double sided tape?
What I don't like about Carpet tape is its spongy and too thick! In order to hold a 12" square piece of wood, it must be perfectly flat and requires long pieces of tape to get a stable piece to machine at higher feed rates!
With the 3M tape, I use a 1"x1" piece in each corner, and put a 2nd or 3rd piece on top of one to make it flat! Then I hammer it down to the machine top, and carve away! Note, none of the tapes will work on MDF, so I usually put an aluminum or plastic spoil plate on the table first!
So $30 = 432 1"squares, or 100+ parts @ $.39/part

It's not what you take away, it's what you are left with that counts!
