Greetings group, I was wondering if anyone has had any trouble with epoxy
glue and white oak. I'm building several laminations here of thin white
oak
to form frames, sheer clamps, stem etc. and I recently ran across
something
in print that warned of glueing up oak in such a manner. So far it has
been
trouble free for me but it seemed appropriate to ask the knowledge base at
this forum of their experiences before proceeding at full speed.

Conventional wisdom is to use resorcinol for white oak, at least that's what
the company that built the frames for a couple of 100 ft Barks did.

YMMV
