Cyanoacrylate or superglue:
Has anyone had any good experience with CA Glue for wooden ship building? If so, what brand? My recent encounters with various brands such as Loctite Superglue and now Hobby Lobby brand (thick and thin) does not seem to work well with shipbuilding (wood). Now, what I experience is that the two wooden parts to bond (common wood types we use) the glue seems to soak into the wood, but never actually bonds. Either I need to change the brand, or I am not doing something right. Even if I hold the parts at least for a full minute if not longer. I let go - parts fall apart. So, it is always back to the white glue again.
Lastly, do you mind sharing what Brand and technique you use to bond two pieces of wood? For instance, I have NEVER had any success using CA glue only to glue the planking to the Hull.
