Using for 1st time. (Basswood) I cannot get the glue to set. WHY? Joint flush, holding for up to 2 minutes.

I'm not an expert but I've noticed that it sometimes doesn't set well if the objects are too cold, wet, using too much glue or there is a gap between the the two surfaces. When this happens I use an accelerator to "quick set" the glue.

I usually wait at least 2 hours to ensure that items are completely dry. The actual drying time may be quicker but I wait that long. The glue is no thicker than Elmer's glue. Hope that helps.

It's sets in about 15 to 20 mins, but I let it set a few hours to dry completely before moving what I'm glueing. It'a great glue, used it on clothe too.

Had same thing first off. Loosen everything, pull out top shaft all the way to the end. It does seem to stick the first time and may break but it won't.

Your question needs to be more specific. What is your application. Right after you mix it, it's a thick liquid. After about 5 minutes it starts to set up. By 10 minutes, it will hold it's shape relatively, but is still very tacky. You need to use gravity in your favor. I leave it dry overnight before attempting to sand or scrape it.

Try pushing down on it, up and down, several times. I think that is how you release the glue.

I have one coming, but I plan to wrap the spearhead shaft and the first foot of the wood shaft in rawhide. Once that dries it will be like iron and tighten down on the haft and hold the head to the shaft like it was glued on there. Plus it will strengthen the first foot or however far down I wrap it of the wood shaft. I might even wrap the first 40 inches or so in rawhide and then the balance in paracord. Will decide once I get it.

I don't think the glue works very well, I have mine attached to something with zip ties. I've had these running on a timer for 14 hours a day for about half a year and the paper you peel off has fallen off on its own after the glue melted from the heat. I think it would probably leave glue on the wood.

Same thing happened to me. I hope to be able to glue it again. Don't you think it can be done?

Hi RavenSorry to awnser so late. Product appears to be all glued.,no joint showing.-

I've not had it happen; the paper probably is the key. Something slick might be more of a problem, but I've not done anything that the glue hasn't held it well.

It's better to clamp the substrate while drying, but it's not necessary. As long as you hold the two pieces together for a minute or so, the glue will start to dry.

a good wood glue like Titebond. I used a waterproof wood glue simply because that is what I had. It helps if you have several bar clamps!

I have had the same problem with the adhesive weakening over time, particularly with temperature fluctuations. I ended up using a double-stick foam tape (3M) , for longer-term results.

A drop of crazy/super glue on the joint is all you need. Use only a little just in case you want to change it in the future.

Sorry,no the glue doesn't hold. Tried super glue and it too let go .great idea but doesn't last .

The hardener was inside the tube with the epoxy. When you cracked it open it was important to shake it for a few minutes. Not sure why yours isn't setting up.
