Re: "Tightbond II" and boatbuilding?
My doug fir mast and yellow pine tiller are both laminated/glued with
Tite Bond II. They are sealed with epoxy clear coat and varnish. 1
year old, and no problems.

The Depoe Bay Festival was wonderful. Must commend Jack Brown, and
his folks for a very organized and well run and most "Friendly" show.
Lots of folks and different boats there.
Saturday was beautiful weather, but Sunday was a day at the Oregon
coast (Lots of rain and wind), so most people left early.
Got to see most of the boats on Saturday, but everybody was was
having such a good time just talking to other folks, including me,
that it was hard to find the owner of a particular boat at their
boat. Not a bad thing, just kind of hard to connect people with boats.
Wish Sunday would have been a little nicer, so I could have taken a
closer look at all the boats there and talked with the owner,
builders, but with my bad neck, I was not too much disapointied in
leaving early.
Highlight of Sunday was "Runaway Dory Roundup" I'll spare names and
and details to protect the innocent, but was lots of fun.
Too many nice boats there for me to pick a "Winner", but that was
a lot of the fun. "No Fees, No Awards, No Rules".
They were all great.
I think a great time had by all, and am already looking forward to
next year. Anybody that didn't show up should plan on comming next
year.
Got to stay in same motel as RCMP folks from Vancouver BC who brought
down a 31' Replica of a "Northwest Naive American" Canoe.
Got to talk with them some, and they seemed to enjoy the event.
Said they were probably going to bring it to the Portland, "Eh",
"Rivers West Small Craft" Show normally held at "Oak's Park", but
that has been moved to Porland's new "Eastside" of the Willamette
River improvement area. It is scheduled for weekend of July 28-29.
More on that later I'm sure. Should be bigger and better. (Maybe,
except "City" will be involved, so I hope that "City" will just stay
the heck out of the way, and lets the regulars run it. It has been a
very nice, casual show in the past, hope it stays that way.
Great time, hope to see you all there next year and at other shows.

I have had Tite II go on me in some remodel projects,
however, I have not used PL adhesive.

I've used it above the waterline to scarf stock for spars, etc. It
hasn't failed yet. Don't use it below whatever the specified temp is
(50 degrees?)or the bond will be worthless. I have noticed a
tendency for the glue to turn a litttle milky upon being submerged.
I haven't noticed any weakening of the bond and it returns to
translucent yellow upon drying. I'd seal it well.
Personally, I use epoxy or 3m 5200 below the waterline.

I've used it but the glue is better than my carpentry. I like the gap filling
of Pro Bond.

I used Titebond II to glue the gunwales onto my Six-Hour Canoe back in
1997, and they still seem to be stuck on after being stored outside since
then. I used lots of screws too, though. It's the one the kids were
paddling around in Depoe Bay Saturday.

School days, I believe, are the unhappiest in the whole span of human
existence . They are full of dull, unintelligible tasks, new and unpleasant
ordinances, brutal violations of common sense and common decency.

This thread has appeared in other forums, also. My major experience
has been with furniture making and building flying model (indoor)
aircraft. In those venues, it is considered more brittle than epoxy.
In an end joint like a chair leg, it eventually flexes, cracks and
separates. It works fine for laminating or scarphing. You should seal
it well, especially if you take it to Depot Bay 8-)

Pat --
We've had a few threads about Titebond in the last year or so. Go to
the Bolger group web page and search the archives for "Titebond." You
ought to get a lot of good info.
I use the stuff a lot now -- my recently finished Michalak Piragua is
held together by nothing but that and some bronze ring nails.
The big question is not ease of use (great), or cost (low), or
strength of bond (apparently very good) -- but durability over time.
How will it hold that mast together in ten or twenty years? I think a
few people have even given us feedback on that.
Good luck. I bought one of the Titebond quart-sized squeeze bottles
with an applicator nozzle , and one full gallon. I keep refilling the
little bottle from the big. It's a great system.
All best,
Garth

I used Titebond II to laminate a redwood mast for my June Bug. I
ripped a nearly clear 2x6 ($20.00 at home depot) in half and glued it
back together as a 3x4 and then tapered it with a power planer. I
used the Titebond II since I wanted the long working time and I also
didn't want to spend the money for all the epoxy it would have taken
for the glue up. I still haven't gotten around to varnishing the mast
and I haven't seen any sign of weakness along the glue line. The mast
is stored in my garage. I've had the boat out on winds up to 20 mph
and the mast barely flexes at all. This surprised me, I expected it
to be pretty whippy.
