[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by orsonroy Superglue WILL NOT WORK on wood. Wood's too pourous, and even if you seal the surface, you'll end up with a VERY brittle glue bond. In fact, I'd suggest NOT glueing a barrier strip to anything, since it's prone to banging, jerking, tugging, etc., all of which will eventually pop the strip off the wood. [/quote] I wish you had of told me this years ago, I use thick (or Gel) CA for attaching plastics to wood all the time. I have been an avid woodworking enthusiast for more than 40 years and frequently use CA for plastic-to-wood bonding since CA came on the market. I use Epoxy for metal-to-wood bonding and yellow wood glue for wood-to-wood. I stand behind my privious post -- "Epoxy or CA either one will work." [:D]
