    Is it possible to glue Acrylic to Wood? If so, What Kind of Glue Should I Use?

    Howdy Howdy, love this forum.

    In my weird little business, I have to make all my own basic tooling by hand, as my needs and applications are so specific.

    I have a work-holding tool I need to create for a couple specific tasks. The end of the tool will be exposed to water (while sanding and grinding the work piece), so either metal or plastic would be better than wood. The wood I'll be using would be a 2x2, or maybe 1.5 x 1.5". Is there a glue that would hold the Acrylic to the end long-term? I could also put in a couple screen to snug it up.

    What would be perfect does not appear to be available. An Arylic square rod (or any durable plastic) at 2x2 would work great but Acrylic seems to stop at 1.0" square. Does anyone know if you can get Acrylic larger, or any other kind of durable plastic?

    Thanks in advance for your insights and suggestions.
