I've been reading this with interest, as I made my 
first feeble grafting attempts a couple of weeks back 
(how long until I know if they took?)

As well as the rubbers, I tried some black electrical 
tape, which seems to me was mentioned awhile back but
not in these recent discussions. Is this a good (hmm,
Honda civic hatchback) technique?  

Also, I tried cutting my first whip-and-tougue grafts 
with a razor; perhaps my scions and rootstock were too

tough, but it was impossible to get a good diagonal 
cut through pencil size wood with the razor blade - 
the blade isn't strong enough, and the holder got in 
the way.  A kitchen knife might work better.
