  • Today I am showing the glue press I made for segments. It will work for gluing any project but I do a lot of segment turning so it is very handy.
    I have been ask many times to show my glue press and how it was made.
    Very easy to make using wood you probably already have.
    This is the Press Clamp I used and it comes in many lengths:

    The one I have is 9 inches long

    That’s an ingenious press to glue wood rings together. It is small and very portable. For me, I rely on a big 20 ton press that I used in restoring and building cars for gluing wood rings together. You gave me another good idea to build one out of wood instead of making the long walk out to my car shop to the press rings together there. You’ve provided 2-3 videos in the past on making jigs that have worked well for me. Now I have one more idea. Thanks for sharing, Gary!!!

      Thanks Larry. I have never cared for weights as I do not feel I get enough control when gluing segments together but it works where that does not matter.
      If you are like me you do have one of those but it is a matter of remembering where it is. I still remember finding a very nice Starrett scale that I knew I had. Only took about 5 years LOL.

    A very well done, easy to understand video, Gary. Makes me want to build one! I did build a flower press for my wife several years ago and it's quite similar but with a captured flat plate on the hand-threaded dowel for more coverage. You don't want it or even need it for your press but it works great for flowers. I'll bet you have a lot of viewers wanting to build one of these for their segment work, which you also have a lot of folks wanting to do. Great job, professor! 😊

      Yes it seems a lot of them want to build one. I have been asked about it for a few years so this was the perfect time.
      Catching up on home owner chores kind of slowed me down and big turning projects so this was perfect as well as the easy one I have for next week.

    You built that press hell-for-stout! You obviously understand how much pressure you can achieve with an inclined plane wrapped helically around an axis. :-) I haven't done any segmented or glued-up bowls yet, mostly because I still have a good supply of burls in Southeast Alaska. But when I start having to do glue-ups, I'll build a press based on your design. Thanks for the tip, Gary!

      Thank you very much Paul. I think if I had a good supply of burls I would be turning them as well.
      I do have one left that someone gave me and I am waiting for just the right time to turn it. Or how I want to cut it to get more than one turning from it actually.
