Adhesives

Contact Cement

I bought water resistant contact cement for laminating. Works well when you have two surfaces that fit well tight. It does not work if there are gaps or the surfaces are unevent.

Epoxy Resin

Bonds anything with a rock hard result. Even a few wayward drops on a C-Clamp can nicely cement the clamp to your wood. Removing the clamp will result in a piece of the wood coming with it.

Fibre Glass

Use fibre glass cloth and epoxy resin to make an even tighter bond between two pieces of material.
