For those in the building trades, I think the technical
term for "gasket seal" is,

Poly Foam Sill Seal Gasket
with a product description here,http://building.dow.com/na/en/produc...wmsillseal.htm
We often use 3.5" x 50' , rolls for many applications,
(it's usual only an 1/8" thick cuz we're really good :-).
Would anyone kindly suggest how to glue gasket seal
to dry spruce/pine?
We've been stapling, but I'd like something more elegant.
Thanks
Elegant? *What's not working for you with the staples? *It's quick and
easy and quick. *3M spray adhesive would do what you want.

" 3M spray adhesive ", sounds like a spray on 2-sided
tape, have you been happy with the results?

Basically. It's a spray contact adhesive. I've never encountered a
3M product that sucked. The worst I've run across is good to very
good.

When you say many applications, give a f'rinstance or three.

Sure Rico...
In this photo, the near window is a kitchen window
and above that is a vent that is openable by a pot
of rocks hung in pic, and closed tight by a cord in the
kitchen,http://www.flickr.com/photos/dynamics/3264642761/

In the cold winter, (-10F) humidity either freezes it in
the closed or open position, that is a bit of a PITA to
dislodge, so we've redesigned the system, so that
shouldn't happen.
We intend to use a sandwiching of gasket seal where
the hinged vent contacts the wall.

Yeah the spray stuff should work. You could pick up some self-
adhesive weatherstripping/gasketing for that application. The sill
seal doesn't have a lot of thickness, which is probably good, but it
doesn't have a lot of give so it won't make up for something that is
starting out as a not too tight seal. Make sure the cover fits
closely all the way around before messing with the gasket.

I'm surprised you still have snow up there, what with it being June
and all.
