Kevin’s Glue Assister idea

Summary

by Kevin

The Problem

Repairing with glue often requires holding the item carefully until the glue dries or creating an elaborate arrangement with clamps, rubber bands, wood blocks, etc. In the past month, I have repaired a wood valence and a ceramic fixture – in both cases I could have really used an extra hand.

The Solution

“Hold It” can be that extra hand you need when you are making a repair. The arms are flexible enough to position just right, and rigid enough to stay in place. While this render shows one possible configuration, there are several: More arms for more complicated repairs; Alternate attachments (currently shown is a clamp style attachment); Use without the base for a larger object in need of repair.
