This is a thank you to Mel for the 3M outdoor double mounting tape for dopping. Up until now, my wife, Kathy has been hand holding all her cabs, since all the dopping methods had, in the past resulting in escaped cabs. I turned a dop stick, and bought a roll of the tape Mel used, and, you can see from the results this worked....and made cabbing easier for Kathy. Woody And a wee bit closer,,,the cab is Mount Saint Helens carnelian

Kathy has done a great job on that stone. It's really pretty and the cab is wonderful.

Wow that cab is an eyepopper! Glad the tape worked out for you. I've now crowned several cabs that way and the tape held very well. Even used it on a fairly small plastic dop head where the contact area was not that large and it still held fast. I'm really liking it!....Mel

My Wally World was all out of the outdoor tape so I decided to 'waste' $2.22 on a roll on the indoor and even that worked!
On a 1/2" dowel!
Didn’t last through all of the cabs but made it to the end on one of them!
Now I just have to get as good at cabbing as woodyrock's wife!
Ditto the thanks, Mel
