Best Uses
These wedges are helpful when installing pressed cane, holding damp cane in position, pressing spline, or keeping a repair area steady while you work. For projects that need cane mesh, spline, wedges, and instructions in one package, a pressed cane webbing kit may be a better choice than buying every item separately.
The wedges can also be used while working with binder cane, round reed, rush, or other weaving materials where temporary pressure or spacing is needed. If your repair project also needs wider edging material, compare the size and use case with 6mm binder cane before starting.
How to Use
Soak cane or reed material as required by your project instructions before placing it into the groove or weave; the wooden wedges themselves do not need soaking. Use the wooden wedges gently to hold the material in position while adjusting tension, spacing, or alignment.
Avoid forcing the wedges too hard into a narrow groove, because too much pressure can damage the frame, split wood, or crush the cane. For full chair repair projects, a complete chair caning kit can help when you need cane, pegs, binder strip, an awl, and instructions together.
Buyer Guidance
Choose this wedge set if you already have cane, reed, spline, or webbing material and only need extra holding and spacing tools for installation. It is especially useful for chair repair, basket work, and woven seat projects where hand pressure alone is not enough.
If you are also choosing weaving cane for a seat project, check whether your chair pattern calls for chair cane medium 3mm or another cane size before ordering. The wedge set supports the repair process, but it does not replace the cane, spline, binder material, glue, or instructions.
Care and Storage
Keep the wedges dry after use and store them with your caning tools. If they become damp during a project, let them dry fully before putting them away so the wood stays ready for future use.
Do not leave the wedges in water for long periods. Store them in a small tool bag or box so the edges stay clean and ready for future chair caning or basket making work.
