T-88 is a long cure, 2 part, 1:1 epoxy glue approved for wooden aircraftstructures. It's available from most A/C supply houses like Acraft Spruceand Wicks. I can't remember the price off hand, but it is quitereasonable. Another bonus I found with T-88 occurred when building thecanoe last year. It works very well on oily woods like teak, which I usedfor the gunwales and inwales.KenOn Mon, 31 May 1999, Eric Norris wrote:> Ok, next question is what is T-88, and where do I get it? > > I have used West epoxy on boats, and when done right it is incredibly> strong and really adheres to the wood.> > E> > >Eric,> >T-88 is my vote.
