| Gorilla glue usually does the trick for me. Also, Tite Bond wood glue is nice, too. I'd recommend both. Hope this helps, and good luck! |

| Also, make sure you are keeping the veneer pressed in the mold for at least 24 hours. The glue does need some time to dry, after all! |

| I use elmers outdoor carpenter glue, put usually any good brand of wood glue as long as not too much is being applied does the trick. And like stated above, make sure it has at least 24hrs in the mold, maybe even 48 to ensure the glue dries. |

Have you ever made a deck noel ? its really about the way the glue is used my friend buys cheap glue and still his decks have amazing pop he doesn't put that much pressure on the mold as it'll make mold lines and all that shit... |

| Hey man, try using polyurethane glues. I think gorilla glue makes there own, but you should definitely research polyurethanes. They get the job done well and quick. |
