You got to remember that your panels are basically supported by the
glue in a shear situation. Even kids white glue will do pretty good in
shear.

When you put things in peal you get a different result so don't lead
the neophytes astray.

Bob, you got to remember that some of the young'uns don't have any
experience with the hot hide glues like they used to build the
'Jennys' G

Anyone know of any downfalls to using liquid nails to glue spars together?
And yes, I expect the usual ignorant smart asses, who really don't have an

I built a bird feeder with liquid nails. It lasted six months and then fell
apart.

I used only Liquid Nails and a smile.....
to hold 2 x 4 foot sheet styrofoam panels of
insulation to my raw concrete basement walls.
None of it rests on the floor for support.

No idea how long it will stay glued.......
it's only been up 20 years to date without
a single panel coming loose.
