I saw "Nano Glue" at the Borg, yesterday: http://www.elmers.com/homerepair/whatsnew.asp While I'm certain the marketing execs at Elmers would never exaggerate the benefits of their product, I am nonetheless skeptical that I would use as many exclamation points to describe any aspect of glue. Still, if this stuff lives up to the company's claims about glue line and strenghth, it seems like it might be ideal for veneering and bent laminations.

Any thoughts or experiences?

Well they say that: "Nano Glue bonds 137% stronger on stainless steel than Gorilla GlueŽ and is comparable on wood!"

OK Great~!! A whole whopping 137% better than a glue that is almost entirely worthless. That means a maybe 4 year old can tear anything apart you bond with the stuff.

Essentially the claim is like the soap flakes advert that claims that their product "cleans better~!!" Better than what? A bucket of mud?
