oh, and one more thing about the titebond...

youll see titebond, titebond II & III... the only difference is levels of water resistance

I use titebond II and never had a problem.

However, I always use fasteners. Just because the glue joint doesn't break that doesn't mean that the wood NEAR the joint can't break. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

again, pioneersaturn will have to help me out on this one.. weve learned some people on another forum about this many times...
i cant remember if it was a magazine or what, but someone did a test with all of the top wood glue brands. i believe gorilla, titebond aelmers were all tested.. and titebond came in first in every test.. including tensile pulls in many different joint applications.. by far. thats where i got the number.. titebond didnt break until after 2000psi

audio junkies did it

What I do with MDF boxes, I use the 90* angle clamps, glue that ish up, use a clamp to push down, then tighten the second clamp , un-do the clamp, repeat on the other side, then put my two clamps in the middle.

Let it sit for an hour or two, repeat on another side.

As per instructions, don't install it for a good day or so. I have to give it more time since I live in Florida and humidity is a bish.

HD has TBII and Elmer's Pro. both are good and gorilla glue sucks so don't use it. I've torn apart numerous boxes to test the glue joints and gorilla is the only one to fail the test.

wood glue chemically bonds the wood, it is FAR superior, it also is cheaper than liquid nails and you dont have to use it with a tube thingy.

Liquid Nails works somewhat, but is far inferior to wood glue

titedond II is the shiznit FTW i took all of my screws out of my box after i got it all put together and coated with a good coat of resin on the in side then put little round pieces of wood in the holes and put wood filler over the top of them. took a 1/2 round over bit to the corners so that is all nice and rounded it makes it allot easier to carpet rounded corners
