Again, I am not saying not to use these products...I do it myself routinely, but to know what they are and use them accordingly. In the MSDS you cite they make repeated mention of "adequate ventilation" and the use of protective gloves. And while absorption through skin is a low risk exposure, inhalation of vapor is of greater concern...if you can smell it you are certainly breathing it.

As to the smoker...life is all about personal risk assessment, deciding what you can minimize and what you just are not going to worry yourself about....I am certainly not about to start telling people to live in bubble.

good point about the expanding glue and keeping joints tight, but i think it applies to all gluing of joints.  when i use the glue, and it's usually just for repairs, i glue and nail.  gluing as a way to put all supers and frames together is a PIA....although it does help the frames stay together better.

Just like Norm, "And, a couple of brads to hold it together until the glue dries..." :P

Titebond 3 all the way.

However, thanks. At least I will use hand protection when I use polyurethane glue.
