[QUOTE="thehardknoxlife, post: 6848321, member: 563104"] Why would the wood split if it's glued?...but if you think a screw or a nail is going to hold split MDF then your not thinking clearly. That .01" of glue is more like a weld on MDF using wood glue. It's stronger than the MDF itself. Do a test yourself. Glue a joint together with nothing but glue, and then one with nothing but screws, now see which one is easier to get apart by prying. No it hasn't. Liquid Nails is an adhesive. No box builder I've ever seen uses it. Unless it was to seal a crack. I never mentioned a brand, but if Liquid Nails has a wood glue product, use that by all means. Liquid nails is used for gluing OSB, or plywood flooring. Mainly to prevent squeaks. The only other things people use it for is small pieces of trim and things of that caliber. [/QUOTE]
