So if I glued it this morning before, it should be fine to test this evening, around 10? I figure overnight means twelve hours, give or take.

By the time I get home from work, go out with the wife for groceries... oh, forget it. I have a conference call at 7am. I'm going to bed when I get home. It'll have to wait until Friday night.

Any good ways to test this joint, without applying excessive force? I figured I'd just put an unbroken section between two tables of the same height, two or three feet apart. Hang off it, see if it'll support my weight. If it doesn't, I'll feel pretty stupid ;oD. If it does, I'll move the joint over and try it. Unless someone's got a better idea.

: Overnight cure is recommended.
