CA and radial purfling

[LeightonBankes]

Hey guys, quick question, if I superglue the radial purfling on the bottom of my wood binding, am I going to be able to bend it on a hot pipe without it falling apart, or should I just use woodglue? (the purfling is all wood also) Appreciate it!

i've actually done this without too much trouble on an electric bender. but CA gives off fumes when heated up that might not be too kindly.

ventilation is a good idea. try it out. discovery requires experimentation.

Titebond three holds better under heat and moisture as compared to Original Titebond.

Appreiciate your input. I use TB3 on everything (Gorilla woodglue actually) and do a mortise and tenon bolt-on neck (and CA for a lot of the trim and visual non-structural stuff)

I use Titebond II for this application. Like #3 it stands up to heat and moisture. However, because of its tendency to "cold creep" I wouldn't use it on any joints that will be under tension.

well, the update is I tried super-gluing the purfling and just holding it down for a minute, but it left some gaps, so I stripped it back off of the binding and Wood glued and clamped it and the result is a lot better
