Buttons look great! I still have some 1/10" plywood left over that I laminated from different color veneer for another project. I may give that a try for buttons.
I have not had much success for holding down small pieces (except for tabs). Thanks for all the tips here! I did try double sided high tack 3M foam tape one time and is was a big mess. The router bit ripped up the tape an slung adhesive boogers all over the shop.

Brady, Thought you recommended Ace Hardware cloth reinforced carpet tape(that's what I bought and haven't used yet). Thanks for the help on this-

I wrote that long ago...Yes - I've found Ace to be the best for our application. It must specifically say either "Fiberglass" or "Cloth" on the front of the box.
Can't find it on their site now...I hope that isn't a sign.

"DUCK" brand works well. They have medium sized rolls at Wally-world. I buy it from a distributor in NJ in LARGE rolls and a couple cases at a time.
Yes- that's the stuff. The the one that says 'Fiberglass' on front is even better than the one that says 'cloth'.
Monty - Yes the Duck stuff is good. I was using this until Depot stopped carrying it in my neck of the woods and replaced it with the mostly clear & 'snotty' stuff with like 3-5 tracer strings running through it. THAT stuff is NO good for CNC since you can't get the residue off the table! (Unless you scrape, douse with solvent, heat or machine it off)

Brady: EXACTLY!! I hate their new stuff! I wish I could get them to carry the DUCK brand again! It's pretty good stuff! But a big kings x on the snotty stuff
Who's your source in NJ for Duck?
