  • Thanks for the info... wood glue it is! Titebond seems to be the popular choice. I've got a bottle of gorilla wood glue left over from another project so going to use that. It says it has a "grip time" of 20 mins.

  • Gorilla glue is so similar to titebond that I wouldn't be surprised to find out it was licensed from them they do this with alcolin which I believe (but not 100%) is the only way to buy titebond 50 in this country. Titebond 50 being what Gibson use in the manufacture of their guitars.

    Used the heavy object method. Really felt the pressure trying to get all the glue down before it started drying and to get enough weight on it! Wasn't so sure it worked at the time as the edges seemed a tiny bit gappy but I trimmed/shaped the edges off post glue so looked good in the end. Saying that, no one fat has sat on the bench yet!

    Made two of these benches and a table which was single 18mm ply.
