Anyone test strength of TBII Extend vs. regular TBII?

[Doug Miller]

Let _me_ reiterate: it was a meaningless comparison. Because the joint itself has no inherent strength, such joints are never used in practice -- so the performance of the glue is absolutely irrelevant.

Both failed due to their use in a suboptimal joint. So what? All you showed is that the test was ill-designed.

Gee, do ya think? I'm shocked.

Just curious -- how long do the instructions for TB II Extend say to clamp the joint before applying any stress to it?

As long as you continue to insist that you performed a meaningful test that demonstrated anything other than your own ignorance, I'll continue to disagree with you.

Of course, you haven't yet conducted any meaningful testing, so you have no basis for forming any meaningful conclusions.

It's the big lead up to when Bowel Area Dave slits his car tires to see at what high rate of speed they fail.

Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?

BAD, you really are a clueless asshole.

I read newsgroups, but post only infrequently because there appears to be much more knowledge out there than I consider myself to possess. It really jumps out at me when someone like you posts questions and then retorts with name-calling and insults when others offer advice that doesn't match your preconceived notion of what is proper.

I've seen many instances when you lambast other posters and invoke your killfile. They give you multiple chances to grow up but you still persist in childish behavior. Do you make friends with people who see you in person? Or do you treat everyone you know like this?

I'm sure others here will help you with any WW task you undertake, but you've got to realize what you're doing first. If you come here for answers to questions, it includes the admission that you want more knowledge than you now have. It appears that most here try to give you all the information they can. That will always include some good-natured humor (it's human nature), but you can't seem to roll with the punches. It's when you try to punch back that makes you look so ridiculous.

Not hoping this will help, John Sellers

I can see you are a paragon of restraint yourself, Keeter! How about some of those infamous blank replies?

Well, I don't want to cater to your every whim, so try to be a little more insulting next time....

Wrongo Dave.

This joint would fail under any conditions, regardless of glue used. The only true test is edge jointing four strips of the same wood, applying the same amount of glue to each joint, clamping at the same pressure over the same period of time, then doing a tensile and shear test on the joints.

You then run your tests until failure and measure the results. THAT would produce your worst case scenraio.

[Bay Area Dave]

ah, HOW is edge joining a "worst case scenario"??

DOESN'T ANYBODY READ BEFORE RESPONDING? IS EVERYONE ELSE IN AS MUCH OF A HURRY AS I USUALLY AM, AND SKIMS THE THREAD, MISSING THE POINT??? THIS WAS A FRICKIN' COMPARATIVE TEST, DESIGNED SO THAT THE BOND WOULD FAIL. I WANTED TO SEE WHICH GLUE HELD B E T T E R.

All testing is not a replication of exact uses.

Dave.

We can all read. I've, for some bizarre reason, read every message in this thread. I understand the point you're trying to make and the points others are making.

Bottom line, you are wrong. Your test was not of the glue, because the glue was not relevant to the failure of the joint. Period.

Please move on.

Don't presume that I'll ever give a damn, BAD. Your killfile list isn't significant, apparently not even to you.

That's the tactic you use. Doesn't work, either.

Are you referring to the BS you started and sustained? Seems like the troll's calling the kettle black.
