Default Glue for biscuit jointed melamine boxes

In solid wood maybe but I don't think you'd get a clean, tight fit in
chipboard. How about dampening the biscuits with water (so they swell) then
using polyurethane glue - that needs moisture to cure anyway.

No need. Fit will be good in chip, and just welly in PVA, slam in the
biscuits and wipe off the squidge with a wet sponge.


The melamine wont take the glue but that's why you have biscuits right?
