A method and fixture (10) for assembling compliant seals (30) includes an aligning member (12) having a grooved surface (14) for receiving a plurality of loose bristle elements (16). The bristle elements (16) are received within the grooves (26) and aligned thereby. First and second backing rings (20, 22) sandwich the aligned bristles (16) and are clamped by first and second clamping members (18, 24). The clamped rings (20, 22) and bristle elements (16) are then removed from the aligning member (12) and permanently secured together, forming the finished seal (30).
