I have just discovered, what to me, is a new woodglue. I use all sorts of adhesives, and this is not something I have seen before, either brandname or type.

The brandname is Gorilla Glue, "The Toughest Glue on Planet Earth" it says. Hah!

It is from:

Lutz File and Tool Co.
3929 Virginia Ave.
Cincinnati, OH 45227

www.gorillaglue.com

"Contains prepolymized MDI, Diphenyl-methane-4.,4 Disocyanate. A mouthfull.

Also says, "Made in Denmark".

It has the consistency and color of maple syrup. It requires clampling, and tends to foam during setup like 2 part urethane foams. I suppose this forces it into the grain of the wood. And it suggests lightly water dampening one surface and applying the glue to the other surface. 1-4 hrs clamping time.

It foams oozes from the edges of the joints as it dries, I notice.

Well, so far, I have glued some blocks of pine and other little wood scraps, and it seems tremendously strong. Bonds well to metal, too.

So, is anyone familiar with this stuff, or other brands? It seems this would be an excellent glue for commercial sound spkr boxes. For pretty boxes, for your living room, perhaps this would not be the best glue for the outside joints, unless you were to laminate with veneer or plastic laminate
