No, that is for interior wood. The glue holds everything together, get the stuff we used, unless a glue expert has a better suggestion...

West system epoxy is another option available at west marine. it is just about as expensive has a much shorter pot and cure time. And it is clear.

due to its properties it is a little bit less forgiving for novice users though

No. It will break down over time.

BP, that square is yours after talking with SIL. He has one just the same, but had picked up his. The wife didn't find anything else, but she did see the kids had reader cards for the leapfrogs on the floor at one time. Check to make sure the kids have them all.

I will try to get everything in the mail tomorrow.

Oh, there are a pair of Harbor Freight plastic saw horses, purty green hammer and purty green 25' tape that was left behind.

Post up to claim.

Yes, I did and of course they said no way, but I fixed up a big box of the goodies for them. They are real good people.

BP, it's a framing sq. The one we were talking about on the table.

I checked, my speed square is missing. Don't rush to get them to me. The boys will be served well by being a leapfrog short for a while.
