    Default What is a good exterior wood glue?

    I'm building a case that will be used outdoors. I need a wood glue that is really water proof and weather resistant. Most of my woodworking experience is with indoor projects (furniture, clocks, etc.) and various indoor wood glues have served me well. Recommendations for a good, reliable exterior wood glue will be appreciated (I've Googled this question, but I really need good feedback from you guys).

    Thanks

    Epoxy, resourcinols, polyurethane, Type III PVA's (ie Aquahere exterior). Epoxy is gap filling, as is polyurethane, but epoxy in a loose join can be made to look much nicer than poly (tinted/mixed with sawdust to match colour). Personally, I like epoxy as it has a looooong shelf life until mixed and has many uses aside from being a glue (fibreglass laminating, waterproofing, hole filler, wood finish).
