What Kind and Brand of Glue Do You Use?
      #4360861 - 06/18/09 08:26 PM

Since looking at the posts from my glue set up post, I need to ask another glue question. What is your favorite type and brand of wood glue? I'm talking about glue that will be used for indoor furniture.
Thanks,
Eddie

Mohawk super resin glue. Best I have found. YMMV.

I guess I'm behind the times or what ever because I still use plain old Elmers yellow wood glue for most indoor projects.

Depends on what I need it for.

Cutting Boards: Titebond III
Dovetails: Elmer's White Glue
General Panel Glueup: Titebond I
Veneer: Titebond Extend
Affixing Loose Chisel Handles: Drop of epoxy (any brand)
Fraternity Pranks: Super Glue

Titebond II for anything that might come into contact with water.

Elmer's yellow Carpenter's Glue for everything else. It's cheap, has a reasonable initial tack, and is easy to clean up.

I also keep some quick-drying epoxy on hand for emergencies, as well as some superglue, but I rarely use those for wood.

Mainly, Elmer's ProBond. But, in the last year or so I've been experimenting with different ones.

I've really liked Industrial Formulations' G-1 epoxy. Long open time, zero creep, ginormous fatigue resistance. A touch $$ though, and you need to give thought to how much you'll actually need so as to avoid having too little/too much mixed & ready.

Titebond III was a pleasure to use. But, most of all I'd have to say I was most pleasantly surprised with Titebond's Liquid Hide Glue.

any brand of white glue for most standard glue ups --

Yellow is fine if I going to pull the clamps a sooner than normal

special projects need other glues as mentioned above
