This week on The Buff and the Beautiful: Colleen comes up with a new scheme to win over Carlos. But first she has to gain the trust of her captor.

I went to Lowes & got some heavy duty velcro strips. I can seperate them now from 5 boards to 4 boards to 3, etc. Hope this helps.

Ducktape would work, but after a while it might show some wear and start to get that stick goop all over you and whatever clothes your wearing. That velcro idea was excellent i enver thought of that. I would use nails/screws or glue or velcro if you can get your hands on it that sounds like an excellent way.

They help with various sticking points on the bench press.
