Default Best jointing glue.

...
I wish to make a board eight feet long and 16" wide. I shall use purchased
red oak from HD or Lowe's. I believe this comes in boards or planks up to
8" wide. I shall use biscuits for the jointing and various clamps. After
jointing and sanding the board will be stained and clear coated, probably
with urethane.

Which glue is best for this jointing project? PVA, urethane, catalyzed
epoxy, etc? I want the board to be strong as it will be used for a small
domestic bar top.

Many thanks,

Peter.


All the glues will be strong enough HOWEVER if the joint line is not perfect
TiteBondIII will dry to a color that more closely match Oak than most of the
others. It dries to a medium brown color rather than clear or yellow.
