Just wondering if polyurethane glue (like gorilla glue) would work as well as epoxy on a scarf joint like this. I have found it much easier to work with than epoxy and it seems to be as strong in some other applications. I find myself reaching for the bottle (of glue ) often.

What are some of the shortcommings of the poly glue I should watch out for?

: I scarfed 1/8" lauan 8:1 (1" wide) and tortured it into a round
: hull with no problem. I took extra care to prewet the joint well with
: epoxy. Scarfing is the only way to go. The butt block at the butt joint
: makes the panel too stiff at the joint and the panel will not make a
: smooth bend.

: If you look at CLC's website (Shop Tips), they use a butt joint only on their
: cambered decks. Bending the deck in two pieces allows for a different deck
: radius front and back and installing a scarf in between would be a
: challenge.
