Subject : Unibond 88 - Workbench top
Posted : 2003-01-13 12:50 PM
Post #29622
I am thinking of using Unibond 800 to glue up the boards of a workbench I am building. The top is of 12/4 maple, about 5" wide (each board). Is this a good choice? Will it be strong enough? I have the glue, but have only used it in the bag for veneering. Pluses are open time, and most important, clean up of the somewhat brittle seepage, as opposed to the rubbery mess of yellow glue. Esp. on the dog holes. Anyone have any opinions on this subject?

Alan,You can definately use Unibond 800 for your workbench. You'll get a rigid, no cold creep bond that is virtualy waterproof. Make sure you sand the glueing surface as maple straight out of the jointer is a little to slick for good glue penetration.SincerelyDarryl Keil: I am thinking of using Unibond 800 to glue up the boards of a : workbench I am building.
