Any opinions wanted on how I have been gluing wood. I have been using Tite

Then a thin coat of glue brushed on both surfaces and clamped. *My reason
for doing it that way is I think the glue penetrates the wood better and get
a stronger joint. Is there a better way? WW


Yes, don't pre-dampen. It's not necessary and may create weaker
joints.


TB is the best on the market, IMO...
If it worked better on damp wood, it would say that on the instructions..
