Recommend a slow setting glue

[Bruce]

I need to do a large glue up that will take about 30 mins before I can start clamping. I've seen David Marks talk about slow setting glue but he never gives a brand name. Can you guys recommend one?

I'm fairly certain Marks is using Gorilla poly glue in these cases...

Titebond II Extend is a newer version of the Titebond II water resistant glue. It offers extended working time. Although I think it is only around the 15 minute mark, but you may get away with a little more.

states the 15 min time frame there.

If you are willing to play some games, epoxy will do the trick.

Use a slow hardener and work in a 50F-55F environment.

(Thin with 10% denatured alcohol to reduce the viscosity).

Once the glue-up is in the clamps, move it to a warmer area to cure.

If you look in the yellow pages for a local epoxy dealer, they can get you a combination resin and catalyst that can be formulated for just about any set time you want. When doing involved faceframes for my kitchen I got one that had a 3 hr. pot life and a 7 hr. set time, add a little "thickener" and it works great. (If you're not in a hurry).

This is a no brainer - use polyeuthane glue. I like EXCEL brand but it is also sold as Gorilla glue and house brands often call it PE glue. It has the consistency of a heavy pancake syrup and I love the stuff. I have used it for veneer work were I need to veneer 2 sides of a large panel and I need lots of time. The EXCEL brand takes about

2 hours before it starts to dry depend>I need to do a large glue up that will take about 30 mins before I can

Marks uses URAC 185 which is a modified urea formaldehyde glue. Highland Hardware carries it.
