The first few responses were not blunt, nor did they convey the message
that
to use carpenter's glue was akin to Icarius making his wings out of wax.
This not blunt enough? Quote: I read that carpenters glue is to never be
used on aircraft. I think the problem is that it dries too brittle.
Or how about this? Quote: The glue just shears right at the joint.
The fact was that the question indicated the questioner was considering
sustaining life with carpenter's glue.
Huh? OP quote: Resorcinol is the recommended adhesive for wooden aircraft?
To what degree is carpenters glue the same thing?
He asked how much they were related. Like, "are they both animal products,
so will I find resorcinol similar to work with, as carpenters glue, in how
it is applied," perhaps. Nowhere did he say he was going to use carpenters
glue on an airplane, by asking "can I use carpenters glue instead of
resorcinol?"
I agree, that the question seems like the OP should have more knowledge at
hand, but geez, don't over react.
