Re: Best glue

Love these clamps, I still own a couple of sets, got them back when I worked at magnolia. I love them when repairing old ornate frames that you can’t take apart but have a big gap, they do the clamp job and close the mitre so you can get a screw or nail in and refinish.

Re: Best glue

Titebond for me, it’s really strong and will rip the wood fibres from the other side of a mitre joint when breaking apart.

I use it and use it when training.

I also like Prospero's idea with a little slip and tape' Another option I have experimented with has been the Gasket option . Normal frame. Glass or ...
