Hi John,

That's a great point. I'm going to try acetone, warmer temps, and
more and better spread glue. Appreciate the input from everyone.


-------------------------------------------------------
Given proper surface prep, properly fitted joints, adequate clamping,
and temps above 60F, about the only real advantage of epoxy over
yellow glue is open pot time.

Yellow glue has about 10 minutes at best while laminating epoxy with
slow hardener has at least 25 min at 77F.

Glad to see you learned your lesson about Gorilla glue.

IMHO, it is garbage.

Have fun.
