If you have ever used wood glue to glue up 2 pieces or more together. Than you know the struggle of your boards slipping and sliding around on you. It seems to be on the last little squeeze you put on with the clamp. You go from lined up to off. This can be frustrating beyond belief!!! So here is how you take care of it......

Yes! just a sprinkle of table salt! I know sounds ridiculous! put your wood glue on as you normally would. Then just sprinkle a little salt on the edge of the glue! then line up your pieces and clamp down! guess whats NOT slipping around on you now! So simple it feels like there should be something wrong! It has saved me a lot of trouble!
