Building a mahogany entry door 1 3/4" thick. I am making stave cores for the stiles and rails, and will be facing them with 1/4" mahogany. The entry door is facing the east north east, pretty far under the entry way overhang. Its in the northern Illinois, we get the worst of all seasons. I have been researching what glue to use to adhere the veneer with and pulling my hair out with all the different answers. I will been using a shop made press (two 5"x8' pieces channel iron and clamps). I'm leaning toward Weldwood plastic resin. but i have read other forums that say plain old white glue is fine also. The staves are glued up with Titebond 2 and now after reading a lot of good and bad things mostly bad about Titebond 2 and 3, was that the right thing to use. I've always used Titebond 1 for interior work in my shop forever. So i'm confused now on which way to go.
