I just used this on my build of 40% Pitts. A couple of comments. It does not soak in like CA does. If you have tight fitting joint you'll find the glue runs around the joint but does not penetrate it. I noticed this in several of my stringers that I needed to replace. Although the glue held the stringer when I popped it free I could see no glue had pentrated deep into the joint. So, using this glue I treat as I would normal wood glue and glue both joints before joining them. With CA I typically assembel the parts, line them up and then go through and hit every joint. I did get annoyed that the aluminum nozzle that comes with the bottle clogged long before the glue bottle was empty. I started to remove the applicator and store it in a cup of water after every use to avoid it getting clogged. Jerry.
