: Hi. Darel.

: Going back to the glue problem, you don't say what glue you are
: using or what temperature you are working at.
: Like all compounds a glue will have a minimum temp. at which it
: will form a proper bond.
: For example;- For Titebond 111 the manufacturers state a minimum
: temp. of 7 centigrade and from experience I would not use it
: below 10c for stripping.
: The glue and the timber need to be at this temp. when the joint is
: made and maintained until finaly set. Just a thought worth
: checking for the glue you are using!
: Regards Les C.

Yes, I was using TB III. I'm doing most of my work in the garage but the scarfing was glued up in my basement which is right around 60. However, I am going to toss this bottle of glue and get anotehr right away though.
