It can be used as it comes in the package or teased out to make a finer trim (see clickable image below).

  Glue Bottles and Tips
Catalogue # S801 (bottle) - $1.60 each
Catalogue # S802 (tips) - $3.95 each

3" plastic glue bottle with plastic nozzle, fits comfortably in your hand to deliver a controlled flow of glue.

  Laser Cut Wooden Wheels
Catalogue # S813
$3.00 /pair

These wheels are 3/32" thick, 1-1/4" in diameter and can be painted or stained to suit your project. To see how they look finished, look at the tea wagon in the Furniture section of the Gallery.

A tip for using laser cut components:
if you are painting them, paint both sides at the same time to avoid having them warp. If staining, dip the wheel in the stain, wait a few minutes, then wipe off the excess.
 

All prices are quoted in Canadian Dollars.
When ordering, please state each Catalogue # along with your
colour selection on the order form as given in the description.
