Titebond will be fine. Tas oak is one of the good timbers when it comes to glueups.

Thanks for that, I was hoping for an alternative that I could get a Bunnings down the road, since only one shop carries titebond. So I'm off for a drive.

Gorilla Wood Glue is quite good also but don't know if Bunnies stocks it.

Look for one that is a step up from white PVC. I use Titebond 2 & 3
At a WWW show some years ago the guy doing the what,s new session suggested that white PVA was only good for sticking stamps on.
Would like to know what others think?

I have never had a failure with Selleys aquadhere exterior and we turn most of the glue ups we do.

I guess I should have also mentioned PVA as it will do as good a job as titebond. A lot of the WW articals are lifted from americian sources and so mention titebond. Poor old Selleys hardly gets a mention in WWmags but is at least as good.

Absolutely. Selleys or any white/yellow glue is just as strong.
