Paul,

I learned from others on this list about using Titebond Trim and Molding 
glue for installing hammers.   I haven't used a glue like yellow titebond 
for 25 years to install hammers.  It takes too long for the very reasons 
you are asking  about and makes it very difficult to remove the hammers if 
need be.   I had used hide glue for years, but then Dave Porritt mentioned 
the Trim and Molding glue and I haven't looked back.  

In my climate it doesn't breakdown in cold, dry winter months.  The joint 
is easily broken with heat if need be.  The joint sets up very quickly so 
there are none of the issues you are asking about.

Hey list, 

How long, when hanging hammers using titebond do you let it sit before 
going to the next section?  I'm going with 2 hours.  I like letting them 
sit over-night, but I only have one Sprulock jig and I'm trying to get 
this done quick. I'm thinking of getting a second jig to double the time 
(half the time)  What say you? 

BTW; Whos going to Oberlin next week?  Let's hook up for a refreshment! 

Thanks 

Paul
