Buzz, can't wait to see the pics. I've had a lot of experience with carpet tape and I switched over to it since joe told me about it. The stuff is great, its in green boxes at home depot and has an incredible tack to it. The last thing I cut was an 1 1/2" thick slab sign, around 15"x30" and I used 4 pieces of carpet tape and a screw or two (only because it was slightly warped). It didn't move at all, and if it was flat I could have gotten away with just carpet tape. At first I was skeptical and worrysom about using just tape as it COULD move but it doesnt. you dont need a lot either, just a 3-4" piece on each corner, depends on what you're cutting out. To get the piece off just use a thin and wide putty knife and wedge it out, it should take some effort but not a lot. One thing that helps is setting up a fence on your table so you can sit it down in that corner and then drop it in and take a rubber mallet to it to get it to stick well because you only get one shot with the tape, if you take it off you loose a lot of the holding power of the adhesive. The tape sticks but it doesn't leave any residue on solids or mdf. Sometimes it wiggles, it depends on how flat your material is, obviously the more surface area of tape you use the less of the chance, but you don't have to be so generous when applying it. Main reason I like it is that you know you will NEVER hit a screw head or a clamp. I've already come close to doing both!
