TBII is a PVA!? Geez, that's the same as old Elmer's glue. I don't
recommend it for turning. Use TB, the aliphatic. Aliphatics have almost
twice the shear strength as PVAs and the one I've had perfect success with
over 20 years of turning. Dan
Actually, neither are aliphatic resin glues. Titebond II is a polyvinyl
acetate
glue (PVA) and Probond is a polyurethane glue. The original Titebond is
an
aliphatic resin glue. I have found that Titebond II is the best glue for
segmented turning.

Both are aliphatic resin adhesives. (fyi: adhesive is the proper term
that
applies here, not glue) I've glued up turning blocks and then cut very
think
bowls from them. I have some that are 18 years old. About the time
aliphatic
resins were introduced. Dan

What glue is best to use for segmented turning?
CA, epoxy, polyurethane, yellow aliphatic resin, something else?
Thanks in advance,

When faced with a choice I choose to use Titebond II. I like the water
resistance and fast set. Pro bond by Elmers would also be a good
choice, the mfg. has upgraded the glue to make it meet the same water
resistance specs. as Titebond II. The Pro bond is less runny than
Titebond. You can even find Pro Bond at Wal-Mart. Good for a late
night run. My segmented turning site.
