• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Wood preserver and glue

Hi All,

I have now finished all the joinery on a couple of garden gates. The are just made with joinery grade redwood. My question is whether to glue it all up then treat with wood preserver or treat before hand and make sure I get plenty on the mortice and tenon joints. The only reason I am hesitating doing it the latter way is that I am not sure if the preserver would affect the glue - in this case TitebondIII.

Which is the right way?

Cheers,

H.
 
I don't think it will as long as you have left it to dry before using adhesives but make sure the Titebond is a waterproof one! [emoji3]
