Is diluting TB recommended? With many glues this can seriously weaken the result. from Titebond: "Most of our water-based wood glues can be thinned with water up to 5% by weight or by volume. Adding more than 5% water to our glues will decrease the bond strength. " This needs to be taken into account. Maybe the thinning is more economical, and if it allows more penetrative bonding with the earth may, the it may be important. This method may well work for you, in your situation, but you are breaking a lot of established rules here. Using these for a boat may not work. May not work and boats?

That's a great point and should be taken note of when you're building your own squaredrop trailer! For me it's as strong as the day I applied it and would not change anything. Whenever you are trying something new you should always weigh the pro's and con's and certainly do test to see if it's really what you want to proceed with.

I have to say that when people are going to look at building boats this way, sitting in the sun is not really a way to judge a building method. Driving around on crappy highways is a good start for checking vibrational resistance. But genuine stress testing is the only way to check the strength of any method. Not saying your ideas are wrong.

It looks good. My only concern is if the titebond is adhering to the PP, or is it just filling the crevices and creating a mechanical lock? The reason dropcloth is used is because titebond works with natural fibers and fabrics and does not stick to synthetics afik. The bond between wood and natural cloth is stronger than the components themselves.

@chumboss501 3 ай бұрын

All I know is it worked out amazingly! I've had a test piece out in the Florida weather for about 5 mos solid and I kid you not it still looks like the day I made it! And trust me, Florida weather wants to kill everything! haha Good luck with your build!

@JustMeBlindFreddy 16 күн бұрын

@LetsGoExplore This is an important comment. The bond between polyester resin and glass is physical. Epoxy is more proper adhesive (of the right glass fabric). But a lot of work is done to get polyester resin to adhere to glass cloth, even though in the end fibreglass using polyester resin is a mechanical adhesion and has worked well. Does the titebond actually penetrate the earth mat? If so then AFAICS it's as good as fibreglass. Then maybe it's not too bad anyway. There is the final weakness issue. The skin itself can be as strong or as weak as whatever. But the final chain link is the bonding of the weave to the polystyrene foam.....and yet even at this best, the best adhesion will tear the foam under max force.

It is canvas. Ask any seamstress how to prevent fraying. There are tons of ways. Also, it doesn't have to be canvas. You could probably use a lot of different types of materials! And not just cloth! How about topping that wood glue with a layer of sawdust? How about using a paper layer, or a metal screen layer, or a tarp layer?

Roll on a thin coat of the butter in sections and add fabric, then apply more butter on the fabric,let that coat dry and apply another heavier coat of butter? Was the base coat of paint the sealer or was the last coat of glue the sealer before painting?

@MrStebo911 6 ай бұрын

Since the glue "butter" is waterproof that is the sealer! And I must say after making a little test project just to see how it would hold up in Florida's harsh weather after 6mos. outside fulltime it still looks brand new!
