When making a bowl I like to put a faceplate on the blank and turn the outside and bottom. Then I glue a block to the bottom with gorilla glue and put the faceplate on the block, and turn the inside. Finally I cut the block off with a bandsaw.
Yesterday I bought a hot melt glue gun for another purpose and was surprised at how good the adhesion was. Could I use hot melt glue instead of gorilla glue to glue the block on, or is it not strong enough for that?
I was actually taught to use superglue, but never found it to be dependable.
