gluing in the new board

[Farrell]

Hi Gene,

Reherse the installation a couple times to get your time down. Have all clamps and blocks pre-positioned. Then either use Titebond Extend or Titebond Liquid Hide Glue (cold hide glue). I've used both and have installed several soundboards by myself with no trouble. Good squeeze-out everywhere - no worries mate!

  Just curious if anyone uses epoxy to glue in a new soundboard?
  Other than the difficulty of removing the board in the next 25 to 50 years, are there any other problems associated with this?
  My main motivation for epoxy is that I will be alone for glue up and prboably am not fast enough for carpenters glue.
  I do have a bottle of new glue that I have never used from Garrett Wate called Slo-Set Glue - an aliphatic resin - gives about 30 min work time.
  Comments welcome.
