Default RE: TiteBond

Wood glue work's best in every application when dealing with wood. It penetrate's deeper hold's stronger. I prefer Titebond II. Epoxy does not penetrate it sit's on the surface. And epoxy is brittle. Do a test useing two pieces of lightply, one with wood glue and one with epoxy. The one with epoxy can be seperated with a gentle tap and without tearing the wood where the wood glue will not seperate without shredding the wood. The only time I use epoxy is wing joiner's where I want the hole filled and solid. And for fuel proofing. If one does not want to wait for it to dry, put a thin film on both surface's let it glaze over join the piece's and apply heat. Take's a total of about two minute's with this method and does not compromise the strength. Of course all this is just MHO.
