Using Hardwood Oak Flooring to Make Panels

[ChuckS]

I wouldn't use 4mms, which are too small.

@Michael Kellough Typically (and for this first panel), I used 6mm dominos - but if it's really just for alignment, I could use 4 or 5mm, right?

@jeffinsgf - I just came across that stand and printed it the other day. This is the first time using it and I really like it. This version holds the bottle upright and will close the nozzle. Fantastic. It does not re-open it when pulling it out - just closes. Printed in PLA on Bambu P1S.

Thx for the file share. How stable is the setup? I've seen some wooden versions that the bottle and stand can still be knocked down easily.

Wait. There're more stable options: https://makerworld.com/en/models/943238-titebond-glue-bottle-holder-upside-down#profileId-2462690

With nice flat nominal 3/4” stock I use 5mm Dominos. If the stock isn’t nicely flat and a little torque will/might make it flatter (requiring less sanding) I’ll use 6mm tenons in the area that needs help.

I never like the Titebond glue cap design. Glue bottles are supposed to be tool-free to open or close it.

I found a sauce bottle holder on makerworld that works well for my Lepage glue bottle. It's friction-fit so I can use it together or just the bottle itself. I'll refill it when the glue is used up. It cost me $0.67 in material cost.

Ha, the best glue bottle I've used is an old Lynx (Might be Axe in the US?) shower gell bottle.
One handed opening and closing, easy to pull the flippy top off if it gets clogged up to clean the dried up glue out and fits into a pouch with ease.
Leakproof as well.
I have no idea why glue manufacturers can't make a decent glue bottle but a showergell company can.

Call me old fashioned but I always end up going back to classic plastic screw top bottles. They just work and are super easy to clean.

Conversely the titebond bottles are by far the worst bottles I've ever come across. I buy the bulk titebond and pour it into multiple screw top bottles.

Glad to hear it's not just me who has problems with Titebond. Feel like a feeble old man when I have to get a pair of pliers to open it. Then it's clogged.
