Oak strips were 1/4" thick. I had a nearby lumber mill cut and them to my required size. For glue I used the Gorilla foaming urethane glue. It gave me lots of time to get the wood lined up and clamped together. I formed the wood first then once dry did a final cut to size for diameter. Applied the glue and then clamped to the previous layer. One thing is that these are very labour intensive to make due to the hours involved.

Yes ive got a second spacer and possibly a third and forth. Ill be putting more details about them in the for sale section.
