Pete for the most part that is what I do. I figure out where the rings ride and only put a dot of glue at each point. I then clean up as much as possible before the glue gets hardened.

Cut from 1 inch sapele and poplar ( antlers ) this moose pattern was in one of the issues back in 2009 it was part of a desk set. Finished with shellac and the antlers modified to better hold business cards.

Kevin please be aware that pressure treated lumber generally uses chemicals that are not good for consumption such as breathing the sawdust. Please take care when working with it.
