Glue for treatd lumber
Has anyone glued pressure-treated wood? What glue works well?
My plan is to build a bridge over the swampy part of our yard, and I want to make something with a nice arch -- evocative of bridges in Japanese gardens. I could use cedar or some such and paint it, but I'd prefer to do this in pressure treated wood so that (1) there is minimal maintenance and (2) it will be consistent with decking and pressure treated furniture in the yard. So -- I want to laminate some arches from strips of treated lumber if that's possible. Does anyone know if it is? Patrick |

Glue for treatd lumber
You might also want to try using polyurethane glue, sometimes marketed as
"Gorilla" glue. It's at the local home store and actually cures in the presence of moisture. A bit pricier than the common yellow stuff, though. Just don't get it on your fingers! Use it sparingly, as it tends to foam as it cures. "Patrick Crockett" wrote in message . com... Has anyone glued pressure-treated wood? What glue works well?
