Does fuming effect gluing?

I'd swear this has been answered before, but does fuming QS oak before assembly effect its ability to be glued? I'm about to make some things for the wife. Wanted to make sure before hand.



Thx, Chris


The ammonia and the tannin have a chemical reaction that changes the color of the wood only and has no effect, worth speaking of. on the cell's ability to absorb glue.

Go to it.
