I wouldn't say glue is "all you need". You need a very nicely made JOINT, PLUS glue. Glue is only half of the equation. For 95% of us... it is far easier to glue and staple/screw strips on the inside of the cabinet. I do a fair amount of woodworking and I wouldn't consider making anything fancier. Wade |

Actually, if I were to say a blanket statement about fastening, I would have to say Duct Tape is all you need! I dare anyone to disagree!!! :P |

Seen it used as bandages, boot repairs, patch holes in airplanes (don't ask), I saw a guy tape one strip to one side of a door and one to another letting it meet in the middle, used that as a hinge for the door (normal heavy wood door) for months... That stuff is amazing and one of the more usefull things that the military invented. |

That duct tape is definitely strong stuff. They hold damaged panels in place on the Australian V8 supercars and these do close on 300km/h. Putty update. Recent coats of sealer have now been on 2 days and no imperfections are noticeable as yet..... |

The gorilla Glue people have expanded their product line and are now offering "Gorilla Tape". Give the stuff props for *sticking* to a brick. |
