Tools and Hardware Reviews of Franklin International 1415 Titebond III Ultimate Wood Glue, 32-Ounce BottleCustomer Review: Titebond III Wood Glue really works... If you use it right! Summary: 5 Stars
I had planned on installing a wooden bridge on a ukulele and had come across an article online on ukulele bridge installation where the ukulele builder had mentioned using Titebond Wood Glue for the bridge installation and had clamped down the bridge on a ukulele for only 25 minutes (that's 5 minutes less than recommended by Titebond on their own label for this product). After I had read this particular article, I then decided to clamp the bridge down on my own ukulele after applying Titebond III Wood Glue. So, I waited about 30 minutes and then removed the clamps to clean the excess glue from around the bridge with a clean damp cloth as stated on the Titebond label. But after an additional 45 minutes without the clamps I found some more information on Titebond's website under their FAQ's. In it, Titebond stated that for "unstressed joints" clamping time could be administered for 30 to 45 minutes. However, for "stressed joints" Titebond recommended that clamping time be administered for 24 hours PLUS waiting an additional 24 hours before stressing the new joint itself. All bridges on an acoustic stringed instrument should be viewed as a "stressed joint" due to the strings on these instruments placing a considerable amount of stress/pressure on a bridge and body of an acoustic stringed instrument.
So, if you're planning on using Titebond Wood Glue for similar musical instrument projects, please make sure to clamp down stressed objects such as bridges or necks for at least 24 hours and not just 30 minutes as recommended on Titebond Wood Glue Labels. And please don't blame the glue manufacturer for a mistake made on your own part. Titebond III Wood Glue really works, If you use it the correct way!
