Glue for segmented turning

[Hornbeam]

Any recommendations on glue choice for segmented bowl blanks, The 2 glues I generally use are Titebond or Aerolite. Titebond has a bit more creep allowance but probably not as strong

I've watched enough youtube videos on segmented turning to know that that the glue of choice is standard PVA or Titebond. That's what I'll be using when I get around to it.

Semforite.
http://www.maragon.co.uk/glue.html#Inita reliable alternative to the rather unreliable Cascamite, although I doubt you'll better Aerolite. Standard PVA probably has the worst creep of all (maybe why we should be wary of some things on YouTube).

I cave up on cascamite about 5 years ago. The issue with UF glues is they create a very hard and rigid glue line so my concern was whether I might benefit from the softer glue line from titebond and whether there might be any movement issues that might make 1 glue better than the other

For the endgrain segments I always use a mitre bond instant set glue as it will leave no glue line. After all you only want to make the rings strong enough to handle them while you sand the endgrain. For the main glue up I use standard Titebond yellow glue as it has a fairly quick 'grab'. PVA's are even stronger than polyurethane so I wouldn't worry about strength.

I use Everbuild D4 with no problems

I use Titebond every time.

You can also use a two part epoxy resin. Great if you have lots of segments.
If you use YouTube, search for ACCU-SLICE, he produces lots of segmented and laminations and uses titebond for simple glue ups and resin for complicated or large glue ups.

I've only used pva on my segmented work, never had any problems. It was just Everbuild 502, so nothing expensive.
