Hi,
I'm going to use the "Smith All Wood Epoxy" from LMII to glue an ebony fingerboard
with a mahogany neck.
In the "instructions for use" you can read:
"Apply to both surfaces to be glued. On dense woods which will absorb essentially
none of the glue, assembly maybe done immediately. On softer woods or beveled
lap joints where end grain is being glued, there may be considerable absorption
into the wood. It maybe necessary to let the separate pieces sit, wetted, for much
as an hour or more to ensure that one does not have a glue-starved joint after
assembly and cure."
Then my questions are, mahogany is considered dense or soft? I think it's soft,
then I've to leave some time the glue applied onto the mahogany, then apply it
onto the ebony and immediately clamp the pieces together. Isn't it? How did you
do it?
Any advice is welcome before I make a mistake
Thanks!
