Superglue & Accelator for quick pattern glueing *Pic*

Hi Chip,

I use superglue and accelator to quickly fasten wood together at times. In this picture you see, I glued this pattern into a square and then cut the triangles out of it and sanded with a disk table sander where I use to work. There are 32 glue joints with strips of both wallnut and ash starting out at a thickness of .032 and getting larger in opposit directions. If I had glued and clamped this, piece by piece with regular glue I would still be at it. But by using super glue and accelator I did it in one afternoon. I put thick superglue on one strip and sprayed the next strip with accelator and when you press them together you get an almost instant strong bond.
