    CA glue can be fun ... okay, not really. It's a mess, it smells bad and I have a heck of a time getting is on a pen smoothly the first time! But I really need to know now is ... how do you clean this stuff up? It's on my lathe, it's on my hands, it's on the bushings ... Is there a reversing...

    Old Table glue failing

    My wife bought a rather nice maple dining room table that has joint problems. The glue joints are failing all over the thing. These appear to be factory joints that are just coming apart. The table has phillips screws so it wouldn't be more than 50 years old I'd say. The finish is just fine...

    What doesn't stick to CA glue

    I am planning on using cyanoacrylate glue to assemble some small thin pieces. I will hold them with finger pressure until the glue sets but I want to make sure that the assembly stays flat and that the pieces are in alignment. To do this I will use a flat surface with a small fence to butt the...

    Glue temperature affect open time?

    I am finally getting ready to glue up a little magazine rack. Only took four dry fits. All I need to do is give it a final sanding and it's ready to go. The whole thing is joined via dowels. A grand total of 46. I need to put glue in the holes, glue on the dowels, glue on the sides, fiddle it...

    Ever use Plastic Resin glue? Thoughts?

    If you've watched the television show Wood Works with David Marks then you've probably seen him using plastic resin glue. I've seen it enough on the show to get curious ... so I did some research. He uses it because it sets slowly, allowing for more assembly time. However after some research...

    Wood Glue Solution

    Hello, I have a couple of wooden dining room chairs that keep coming apart. I can wedge the pieces back into the holes, but they don't stay for very long. A friend of mine said all I needed was some wood glue. Is this true and if so, do I need to put any weights on it or keep it upside down...

    Super glue em!

    During the cold dry months of winter, I get those nasty little cracks in the ends of my fingers. They are painful! The best treatment that I have found for them is to clean affected area well, dry, and then put a drop of super glue over crack. Be sure to let super glue dry completely before...

    No plastic resin glue to be found

    I've been very frustrated trying to find some weldwood locally to laminate my bubinga and paduak boards for the guitar neck. That was the recommendation to avoid creep. But nobody stocks it. Shipping is more $ than the glue! I researched some online and didn't find any real downside to...

    Glue shelf life

    I use Titebond I & III glues for most of my projects. I read somewhere that there was a shelf life of approximately one year. Is the shelf life computed from the time you open the bottle or does the manufacturer assign a shelf life date. I usually do not have glue in my shop that is older...

    Cleaning glue from K body Camps

    Anyone have suggestions for cleaning Tite Bond glue on K body clamps. Yes, I got a little sloppy and didn't clean them immediately and now after scrapping the glue off there's this nasty black marks that can be lightly sanded off. But was thinking there may be an easier way with some sort of...

    Glue for HDPE

    Yellofins, generously left me with some HDPE off-cuts from a friend's CNC shop. How would you go about gluing this material, and what type of glue would be recommended? I have worked with PVC moulding stock and used regular PVC cement before, but I am not sure if this is of a similar make-up. I...
