 I have used titebond for years for all my wood gluing needs, including hanging hammers. I don't even own a glue pot. I just could never see the need for all that mess.

I saw the "sandable" and "fills small gaps"

description on the bottle,  tried some on some test

bushings, and truly liked the way it handled ! 

Held the felt fast, but still softened under water,

dried harder than PVC or regular PVBA ( meaning less

sweling in humidity, I suspect ).

     Unless someone gives me a  good reason not to, I

intend to use this stuff on keybushungs ( and

soundboard shims ) henceforth.
