Common Questions About Best Adhesives for Woodworking

In the end, choosing the correct type of glue for a woodworking project enables a masterful worker to create strong, solid final projects that are built to last. The standard yellow carpenter's glue can be great for touch-ups and repairs but there's a lot more to learn about adhesives for woodworking before you can choose a product. 

Examining the wood you plan on using is the fist step in selecting the right glue for your product. The cut of the wood, how the pieces fit together, and the rate in which the wood absorbs glue are all factors to consider during your decision-making process. If the glue is absorbed into the wood at different rates, the joint is likely to fail at some point. 

The moisture content of wood is one of the most important factors.Wood that is too moist will shrink away from the joint as it dries and this can cause the joint to weaken, and ultimately fail. Wood that is too dry is also a concern because it can absorb too much glue and leave too little glue to adhere the joint together. Besides moisture content, another environmental to consider is temperature. Each glue will have instructions on the proper working conditions on the label.

  1. Buy the right type and right amount of glue for each project - though more expensive, consider smaller containers. 
  2. Date your glue bottles once you crack the seal. 
  3. Make sure to properly store your glue to extend the shelf life of your adhesive. 
  4. If the glue will be on a stained surface consider mixing sawdust in the glue for a smoother finish. 
  5. To keep a glue bottle's tip from clogging, "burp" the bottle so the tip is clear before you put the cap back on.
