[Woodcarver] Gluing

Hi Larry,

Elmer's Carpenter's Wood Glue, TruBond Wood Workers Glue, ProBond weather
resistant Wood Glue, or Tite Bond 2 are the products I generally use and
very satisified with providing I get the surfaces matched very well. Gorilla
Glue is better for spanding a wider glue joint if the two surfaces are not
perfectly matched. Tite Bond 2 and ProBond weather resistant Wood Glue are
better for higher humidity like outdoor applications.

I haven't found any of the above glues to be hard on the chisels, but keep
in mind that I'm carving with a 28-degree angle at the cutting edge.
