    Just watched a YT video. The presenter is sponsored by Titebond. Noted he preferred Titebond 3 over Original or #2. More working time and no glue bond joint is noticeable. True or internet BS regarding no visible glue bond joint?

      I think the fact that he was sponsored by Titebond, promoting Titebond should tell you plenty.

      I've used Titebond and many more wood glues and can't say for one works any better than the other. I think they all claim to be stronger than wood.

      If i am correct TB3 is waterproof.
      And by the way, i prefer TB3 for wood to wood joints.
      But any TB will work.
      Cheers.

      I use the stuff from Harbor Freight. Works fine.

      Titebond is just basically pva wood glue. If your laminating plywood then you are going to see lines anyway so what's another line that's about 0.01 mm thick?
