The Assembly 65(a tite-bond product is also a good glue as Ron said & sets a fair bit faster than the Bolduc mystery PVA but has the same strength properties IMO. Less money too. <div style="color: navy; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; clear: both;">Dale Erwin R.P.T. Erwin's Piano Restoration Inc.

Anything can be done badly, even with first rate materials. That doesn't make it the materials' fault. > I'll have to look into the Assembly 65 glue. Had not heard of that. I've mentioned it a number of times on list. It's another Franklin product. High solids, fast set, dries cracking hard, heat sets so would be a good choice for high production RF cure as well as general woodwork. Like TB 50, you can probably get it fairly cheaply from Franklin in 5 gallon lots, or from M&H in quarts. It's an interesting glue, and worth a try. Ron N </tt></pre> </div>  </div>
