: Lee Valley Tools makes a glue like Elmer's with one important difference. It
: doesn't wick into the wood so you can stain or finish it much more easily.
: I used it mixed with sandings from my sanding of my red cedar. It matches
: up quite well and sands nicely also. Its a little thinner in consistency
: but will thicken right up when you add the sanding dust.

: I used this glue on my decks to avoid the Elmer's look and I'm happy with the
: result. Now if I had just done a better job of sanding I'd be blemish
: free.

Stan,
What is it?
Ray.

I have few words today, yesterday I paddled 12 miles in a stiff wind from Pt. Defiance to Vashon (Dockton) and back with the Southsound Wooden Kayak group. A good time but grueling.
