Ok, so I went down to Tulsa to the Woodcraft store on Saturday, and purchased their 2" x 6" x 18" granite plate to use primarily for sharpening chisels, plane irons, and my spokeshave blade. I followed their instructions on their web site, soaking the paper in water, hoping the capillary action would stick it down to the surface of the plate. That didn't exactly work. Some of it stuck down, but the ends were curling up. I pulled up a you tube video where the man was using a diamond plate and wrapped it with his wet or dry sandpaper to hold everything down. His reason for doing it that way was that yes, the paper will curl, and when the edge of your blade or iron hits the curl, it will start blunting the cutting edge. That made sense, so on to my question. Am I doing the water thing wrong, or was that just an advertising ploy to get people to buy their granite plate. Do I need to use spray adhesive to adhere the paper to the plate? I will appreciate any advice.

Stumbled on this a 3-M glue rated for a thousand PSI and it holds 3M Scotch-Weld Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR100 -
Good morning guys, over the weekend I added some suede to the inside of my woodworking vise using Scotch 77 super glue which doesn't hold well enough for my liking. Couple questions, I bought some heavier leather now and am wondering what to attach it with? I've read two sided tape Titebond glue, as well as some Titebond hide glue. Can anyone share their personal experiences? Second question is it any better to put leather on both sides of the vise? Thanks Pat
