I am trying to make some small laminated trays with mixed results. I did end up making an interesting (to me) adjustable jig that I will post pictures and details of later.
The problem is the glue lines are failing. I made my first (12 x 6ish x 3/4) blank out of Stepeli (1 1/2), cherry (3/4), maple (1/2), Black walnut (1/4) repeat maple, cherry, stepeli. First time I used epoxy (2 to 1 very thin) thinkened with cabo sil and several joint failed when I had and incident at the router table. I reglued with 15 min epoxy and still some joints are opening. Thoughts?
