[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 3509854, member: 550915"] Gorilla Glue **** for building boxes. I've actually seen it crack and bow the wood between screws and clamps because it expands as it dries. It also is only about half as strong as wood glue. BTW, MDF is not particularly strong. It is heavy, dense and non-resonant, but is isn't very strong. It will flex quite easily and breaks fairly easily as well. Birch ply is much stronger and lighter but can have some issues with internal resonance unless you spend the extra $ to get the high ply count, void free type. [/QUOTE]
