There is a glue by Weldwood,  "plastic resin" I believe is the name.  It is a powder
and mixed with water forms a thin brown liquid.  Smells 'sweet". Must be clamped
with good pressure.  Dried rock hard and is absolutly stronger than the wood itself.
 I haven't seen it in stores lately,  it used to come in 8 oz cans like stains and
paints.  The working time I believe is at least 5 minutes.  If you need non creep, 
long working time, and very easy spreading with brush, this is a glue to check
out.---ric
