...I don't remember...

   Some twenty or more years back I remember reading about how to bond wood using an iron and alaphetic resin (Titebond glue)
   If any of you fellows remember this process, please remind me again...
                     Thanks,

Hi Bud;

  If memory serves me correctly here that was a quick fix if the glue did not "BOND" correctly. The stuff is heat sensitive, put the two peices together and add direct heat to the parts and it reactivates the glue repairing the "BOND" I hope I got it right?

The "G-man" is correct.  It will work as a repair process.

I used the idea 22 years ago while building my F/A-18A for controline scale and it is still holding.

The process is to paint aliphatic resin on both surfaces that are to be bonded and allow the resin to dry. then position the parts and apply heat using a $coat iron to polymerize (bond) the resin.

I would draw lines on the inner surface of the wing skin (1/64 ply) to mark where the ribs and spars would touch the skin.  Then paint a 1/4 inch wide area with the resin on the inside of the skin and on the edges of the ribs and spars.  Allow the resin to dry.   Place the skin in position and apply heat.  Go slowly as the heat has to reach the lower coating of resin to activate it.
