In this video, i test 3 glues adhesion ability on torrefied sitka spruce.
Everything was clamped over night.
I had heard from multiple highly respected luthiers that Hot Hide Glue doesn't adhere well to Torrefied spruce.
I wanted to see if that was true--- but there are many caveats to the answer.
*Glues tested are:
1- Hot Hide Glue (192 gram strength).
2- Titebond (Red cap).
3- Cold Hide Glue (Titebond brand)
*Torrefied sitka spruce (top/brace stock) from Stew Mac
