Default RE: titebond

ORIGINAL: KW_Counter

Does anyone use Titebond where 30 minute epoxy is the norm?
Such as gluing wing halves together.
Thanks,

Sometimes.. Depends on the structure around the area. If you can apply sufficient clamping to assure a good glue joint. If you aren't expecting the glue to span gaps. It there's bracing, i.e. tri-stock, reinforcing the joint. Under optimal situations, I'd definitely entertain using titebond over epoxy.

Here's a rethorical question. If a titebond joint is stronger than the wood around it... And an epoxy joint is stronger than the wood around it.... Then what breaks first? The wood? the titebond joint? or the Epoxy joint?
