I have hated the hassle of gluing on another spoilboard. it is a struggle to get the glue everywhere not smear it when setting the spoilboard down and so forth.
A fellow posted about separating the zones by cutting a Chanel in the spoilboard and filling them with sintra. Well I tried that but the sintra did not stay glued in.
So I thought of a better way before I removed the last spoilboard I put the new sheet on I cut it into 48.25x24.25 pieces then planed one side.
I removed the old spoilboard and then here is the easy part. I sealed the inside edges so air cant jump the zones then I used yellow glue on the plenum and glued down one piece at a time. this is far easier then a whole sheet I can get the glue on every part get the sheet down put plastic on it and turn on the vacuum. it takes a bit longer but I think the glue-job is better and the table seems flatter. I seem to have a little more suction according to my vac Gage.
