It's only messy if you machine through the tape.

It is the number one method used for holding down small flat thin components.

Carpet tape is the best type.

I've used it on countless occasions at school with the small Roland PNC2300 engraver.
It doesn't leave a mess iff you get the right tape...found that out the hard way :(

I don't like the sound of blu tack - difficult to get it level! More environmentally friendly though I guess.
