Default Cedar Strip Construction

"KR & CA Hunter" ) writes:

Also, can anybody advise on what type(s) of glue are suitable for cedar
strip construction. Builders adhesive has been suggested. Here in
Australia the "Liquid Nails" product is sometimes referred to as builders
glue. Does anyone know whether this is the same product?


people have reported in this newsgroup using hot melt glue. apparently
anything which holds the strips together until the fibreglass can be
applied is suitable. however the hull has to be scraped or sanded smooth
before the fibreglass goes on. some glues will just clog sandpaper. I
haven't read anything about how to smooth a hull glued with hot melt glue.
