These products make it easier to assemble boxes, lamps, and other three dimensional projects. These ideas will eliminate wasted time and frustration when working with multi-sided objects.

THE WEDGIE FAMILY OF STAINED GLASS HELPERS are made from hi-tech foam. Wedgies are triangular blocks that hold your 3-D projects while you solder. Made from a heat resistant foam that won't melt if solder drips on them. The non-slip surface will cling to your work surface, holding your project securely while you solder. Choose from:

  • WEDGIES (#39900) come as a set of two triangular blocks that measure 3-3/4 x 3-3/4 x 5-1/2 and three inches thick.  $26.99

  • WEDGIE JR's (#39901) are a smaller (2 inches thick) version of the Wedgie, above. The foam is not quite as heat resistant. Avoid touching your soldering iron to them. Packaged in a set of three.  $18.99

  • LAMP WEDGIES (#39902) enable you to prop your lamp, or other large 3-D project against the non-slip foam. Use two or more Wedgies for more support and work away! This product is convenient and helps you work more efficiently. Size is 13 x 5 x 4" overall. Comes with instructions and mounting hardware.  $24.99

  • WEDGIE TAPE (#39903) is a thin strip of the same foam material used in Wedgies. Slip proof your cutting square or straight edge with this adhesive backed tape. 24" long, 1" wide.  Find uses beyond your glass workbench: the webmaster put two strips on the back of his PDA to keep it from slipping out of his shirt pocket!  $4.99

THE OCTAHEX (#39911) works like the Professional Boxer, except the sides are set up for six or eight sided items such as candleholders, jewelry boxes, etc. Made of heat resistant acrylic, you can see through to line up your work precisely.  $29.59

THE LAMP CLAMP (#39907) is a life saver when making panel lamps. The kit has adjustable alignment guides that hold the proper angle and clamps to keep everything together.
