Great explanation. I really like that you understand and explained the actual types of glue (PVA, polyurethane, etc.) rather than just talking about "Titebond" or "Gorilla" like so many other UA-cam videos.
Thanks for sharing. This is definitely one of the best reviews have seen for wood adhesives. You left out two of my favourite adhesives, contact and silicon. Silicon is normally considered a filler but I use it for glazing, which is really gluing glass to wood or metal. I use the contact glue where a rubber-like adhesion is important such as material-to-wood, for example splinter guards on track saws or non-slip materials under wood..Finally there are several tape adhesives which I'm sure you have reserved for a separate video.
Just to point out, it sounded like it is possible to vary the set up and cure time of epoxy by changing the ratio of hardener to resin. It's not. The resin to hardener ratio is written on the bottle of hardener usually, and the mix has to be precise or it will never cure properly. The other tip is that they can be mixed by volume, or by weight. So by volume here, you had a 1:1 and a 2:1 type epoxy. But with the 2:1 epoxy in the bottles, the ratio by weight will be slightly different, and this has to be followed carefully to get it to set up properly and get full strength.
Absolutely excellent video. I would suggest you upscale it to 4K or pay this guy whatever he wants to reshoot it in 4K, maybe throwing in some shots with a magnifier lense of the glue settling into the wood. I guess you could give him some glue as payment; he seems particularly fond of two-part epoxy.
When you used the epoxy you used a spoon for measuring the 2:1 ratio. Does the spoon now become a throw away, or is there a solvent you can use to clean it up? TY
When using a damp rag to wipe off glue squeeze out doesn't that push the glue into the pores or grain of the wood. And then when you apply stain to the peace won't that cause uneven staying penetration.
I am curious as to why you didn’t include the best wood glue of all, used on airplanes and boats, resorcinol’s. It would be interesting to see how they compare in particular for outdoor projects where the high resistance to both water and UV becomes important.
Hi which one can I use to glue the ping pong racket with the rubber, be advised that I am changing it every 6 month I want to keep the racket and the rubber without damage . Thank you
I'm sorry but Tightbond III should not be used for exterior projects. I know it says it's waterproof, but it is not. Please look at other youtube channels that have done tests. And in my own tests on Tightbond III it's failed when wet. Dap Plastic Resin Glue or Epoxies should be used.

For larger cracks he was showing for CA glue, I put baking soda in the crack and then add CA glue. Fills the crack and makes for a hard joint,etc.
I just got into woodworking recently and I would like to express my gratitude to you Sir: Thank you!
Very informative and instructive.
A great video for beginners like me, very informative. Many thanks.
Great presentation
Thanks for sharing. Every woodworker should watch this, very informative.
Ok

Very, very good video. I sincerely thank you ! Cheers from Canada.
Great instructions, thanks
Jim excellent job. I appreciate these most informative videos that have you as the host.
Thank you for the free knowledge.
Great video. It was informative AND you have examples of how to use each type of adhesive. Pro job Jim
Fantastic video!!! Thanks for taking the time to make this informative video.

Good video! Thanks for the advice - very informative!
Excellent video. Thanks!
You only wet one of the pieces when you used the polyurethane glue. Why wouldn’t both sides be necessary? Great video … thanks!
When you used the epoxy you used a spoon for measuring the 2:1 ratio. Does the spoon now become a throw away, or is there a solvent you can use to clean it up? TY
Excellent
I LEROI MOORE expressly likes MR HEAVEYS comprehensive instructions thanks very much.
Very useful thanks. 👍
Thanks for sharing that, well said

What about the powdered epoxy glue that you mix with... some liquid? water? People dye it, I think?
