Connecting the Dots

Connecting the Dots

I keep sheets of colored adhesive dots in the shop to use for part assembly. I find them at office supply stores. After I prepare and dry fit each joint, I mark the two part ends with a pair of matching colored dots. Different joints receive other colors. I leave them on during sanding and finishing stages. They keep my part ordering clear and peel off easily at glue-up time.
