what is your recommendation to glue copper to plywood is ln-950 good for this application

Hi Mr. Richards, While I know the properties of LN-950 are designed to bond metal to stone,there is a list of the materials supported for the use of this glue. Wood and metal are both on the list so it would seem logical they would bond real nice. The fact it was useful outdoors as well as indoors sold me and it worked well bonding the metal chimney vent to the brick flu without a problem. It has been in place for almost a year now so that is a good sign it carries the adhesive properties I was looking for. If you are using this indoors only, Liquid Nails might have another product that would be cheaper in price but carry the strong bonding properties you are looking for.

I appreciate the answer and will persue the LN-950 system. Cost is no object as the project is small but very important not to fail. Thanks Byron

Yes, this will certainly help. But velvet is a parasite and you will need to use copper too.

Are you talking about using it on the plywood or stoing it until you get the table? I would think either way it should work.

The CopperCoat product is basically water-based with soap/water recommended for cleanup. The consistency is really thin and easily soaked up by the wood being treated. I used the same brush for a large deck project and only shook it out after each use.

I think this would be perfect. I use it on ceramic statues. It does not have a strong smell, so I assume the solvents are pretty tame (and I use solvents in my artwork so I am pretty sensitive to them). This stuff is exactly what I would use if I had some fine woodwork to wax, and I wouldn't hesitate to use it on copper. All right, I was going to say try it on a hidden portion, but you don't have it yet, right? LOL. It's good stuff, as good as any they are thinking of, so I think it's fine.

Clean ALL leads of any debris, wipe with denatured alcohol. Wires, connectors everything. Check for cracks in insulation. If u do wrap this copper tape around it, be sure to ground the tape. Good luck.

YES! Make sure to put cardboard under the copper when doing it, so as not to mark your table

I have experience laminating and I always used contact glue, so that is what I used with this. Just my preference.

Thank you SG; I mistakenly thought this was the copper core, not the aluminum. Everything else you stated is spot on though. Thanks for the help!

Have not tried it for your application. Hence, not sure. Should work it the copper is not finished.

I'm planning on getting cheap plywood or foam from a hardware store and using either spray tacky glue or modge podge to "mount" it. I'm going to paint the edges of the plywood or foam with craft paint and buy it about a half inch larger than the print for a small border. There are a lot of DIY websites with these projects that look great.

You can use either. Cork will transmit less noise. If the laminate is floating, you don't have to glue down the cork, just tape the seems. If you are gluing down the laminate, you would have to glue down the cork first. In either case, the 1/4" plywood would be stapled down with a pneumatic stapler (or screwed, but that is a lot of work). Staples every 4-5" in the body of the plywood, every 2" around the edge. This is assuming that you have a plywood subfloor, not concrete.

I have the product. Like it but my copper pieces are for decoration only. Sorry. Call the company for an answer.

No, it is used to melt solder which holds copper together or to hold copper to a circuit board.

I haven't tried that, but I wouldn't think lacquer would last very long outdoors. I would try some kind of polyurethane, but I'd check the can to see if it sticks to copper. Sorry, only an opinion from a non-expert.

Hey Wareren, .. ok, I took a knife too one of my connectors; though it all looks like copper, I was however, able to cut a surface layer off identifying aluminum. Weight also doesn't line up with what would the weight of 25' of copper cables. I will note, they have worked fine for the occasional use that I had need of them. I still really like the quality connectors, all the rubber, and the carrying case is of better quality than I expected. Personally at this price point & again, for what I'm using them for, I would buy again. Note: Though these are called "commercial duty", I would not buy them for commercial use!

Make sure your solution is compatible with copper pipe (non corrosive) and it should work.
