I put the Gorilla Wood Glue in the same category as Tite Bond.

I haven't used Gorilla Glue enough to have an opinion. However, I do find it interesting that people have very strong opinions about it, it seems to be a very polarizing glue. :)
Folks either swear it's the best thing since sliced bread, or they say it't total garbage. :laugh:

@ Jeff

Check out some wordworking forums and see what they think of GG v. TB.

Tite Bond III is water proof and can be used at lower temperature. I heat my shop with a wood stove and so a lower work temp makes a difference to me.

A sure sign of bee keepers :laugh:

Most of my hives are above water, so tite bond 2 is sufficient for my bees. I've also used Gorilla Wood Glue and Gorilla polyurethane. Just about anything is better than nothing. Just put some glue on it Moots and don't worry about it. :)

LOL! Roger that Blue...no worry here. :)

I use titebond III and while I'll acknowledge it's probably overkill, it's my natural tendency to over engineer things. :)
I'm a firm believer in the use of glue, I can remember as a small child watching my dad use glue on a building project and his telling me that the nails do nothing but hold it until the glue can dry.

Hey guys I've been using Titebond III. Is it stronger or just more waterproof?

Looks like a bit more of both.
