Glue Review

[Donna Walter]

I've lost where/who/what information. It has been a week since I read a review of a new, quick setting (reduced drying time), strong, wood glue for frame miters. Now, I've searched pages of Decor and PFM and this site to ask -- does someone use/know it.

There is a glue called Maxim that has a 3 minute to hold, 15 minute to set, 3 hour drying time. (Those might not be the exact terms). I use it and it is supposed to be very strong. I don't know if that is what you are looking for, but I hope that helps you.

I recently purchased a saw from Circle Master in Mississippi and when Bill Hursey demonstrated the saw he used Maxim and supplied a sample bottle. He used it to join a 8 Sided box made from scrapes without a vise .All he did was hold two sides together for a brief time and then repeat the process till complete.The glue dryed so fast a vise wasn't needed .Of course that could work against you if you don't get the sides joined right.Maybe you could contact him for information.The phone number on the glue is 1-800-777-3165.

We use Maxim and like it much better than the others, including FrameWeld. Don't let it sit too long if you want to separate the mitres!
