After doing that gluing with the Barge yesterday and realizing that some of my next gluing will require a lot of glue I decided to do more research on glue and the danger of using the various types.

Long story short, while Barge is amazing, I think it's best for smaller pieces to be glued together - The original formulation I was using is very dangerous stuff as it contains a large percentage of toluene (and other bad chemicals).  Nasty.  Fortunately I was wearing the highest-rated respirator, so no issue (though even with that on I was able to get a whiff of it...), but the smell lingers and I'd rather not breath it.

I spent over an hour this morning researching low-odor alternatives and I decided to try Gorilla Construction Adhesive.  You can use it without a respirator and will bond nearly any combination of materials quickly.  Read more here.

Fortunately my local (and close by) Ace Hardware carries it so I ran over and got some.  We'll see how it goes.  Today I'll just try it on some smaller pieces and see how it works out over night.
