wortheffort | Putting Wood Together - Prerequisite Course #04: Adhesives and Glues @wortheffort | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
One of the most used products in the craft is glue. There are a variety of options here from good 'ole Elmer's School Glue (works great in woodworking) to stuff made from rabbets. Knowing which to use can be the difference between success and frustration. So here's a general overview of glues and adhesives I use in my shop.
