I mentioned wax paper earlier. It really is great stuff for this sort of work especially when using contact glues. I just took this picture yesterday. Still in service without any problems.

Thanks guys! Just so I'm clear, after I have applied contact cement to both pieces, I wait for the initial drying time to pass, then place a piece of wax paper on one piece and slide it out as I press the pieces together?
Thanks again,
Tim
Yes that's it. Make sure the glue dries completely (however it is recommended in instructions.) If the glue is too wet then not only could it make a mess, but it will not stick as good. Seems backwards, but that's the way it works.

I am really impressed with your work, Walt. Your pictures are awesome. I just wish you'd paint that brass bridge.
