How does this go in there? Putting corn on the cob holders into wood
-
The2356899 on Mar 24, 2016A sharp chisel the width of the corn cob holders. Hammer a slit. Use wood glue to hold. Hope that works. I can see the potentialHelpful Reply

Ray Phillips on Mar 24, 2016I would use super or crazy glue. I don't think wood glue would hold them in .Helpful Reply

Jane R. on Mar 24, 2016Use clear caulk instead of glue. I glued a square ceramic tile to the top of a log to make a side table for my chair outside. I can pick up the whole thing by holding the tile only. It does not turn loose and the log is heavy.Helpful Reply

GeezLouise860 on Mar 24, 2016Absolutely! Try gorilla glue it's wonderful however if you use too much it will harden with the excess foaming out your hole and hardening. Try a dry run with it on something else so you're familiar with how it works. But gorilla glue will hold a gorillas jacket at least. ;) Hope this helps, have a great day and weekendHelpful Reply

William on Mar 24, 2016I guess you want them flush with the wood. Very Carefully use a razor knife - box knife - to pierce a channel in the wood deep enough for the cob holder to fit flush. Dip the cob blades in two part epoxy and slip them in the channels. As a woodworker and handyman, I have used Gorilla Glue and don't like it. It's a polyurethane glue that expands into a foam "adhesive" when it comes in contact with air. It's similar to expandable foam insulation in liquid form.Helpful Reply

The2356899 on Mar 24, 2016There are so many glues out there must be one to suit. I'm in the UK so our brands may differ. Your local diy store should be able to advise. Good luckHelpful Reply

Jane R. on Mar 24, 2016It would not show at all. Just put it into the slit or hole then put the corn cob holder in. It dries clear and is not visible at all.Helpful Reply

Jane R. on Mar 29, 2016I'm disappointed that only a portion of my answer showed up. I said use clear caulk. Holds strong and doesn't show!Helpful Reply

Casey Gragg on Mar 30, 2016What kind of wood is it? I have been working with driftwood and its tough but soft enough to do all kinds of things? I like the piece you chose for your project. You could fill in the space between corn holder and wood with a jute or twine, the extra glue to hold the rope will provide extra hold for heavy items, in theory. Would love to see photos of finished project if possible.Helpful Reply

Casey Gragg on Mar 31, 2016Looks like it could be oak or something hardwood. Still I love what your doing. I go to Dollar Tree or any dollar store and get a spool of twine or jute it looks awesome with natural woods and can give it a nautical feel to your project. would love to see more! thanksHelpful Reply
