: Hello,
: 2) My construction space is not heated and I live in central Ohio. What are
: the practical temperature limits for Elmer's wood glue? (heating the space
: is way too expensive)
: Thanks for the input
: Scott
Scott my winter temperatures here in east central Indiana are about the same as yours. I used Elmers yellow glue in my attached garage with out heat, and only did my gluing when the temp was above 40 degrees and was going to stay that way for at least 4 hours while the glue dried. I didn’t have any problems. But don’t leave your glue bottle in the garage when it gets below freezing. I did and the bottle of glue jelled solid. I did a lot of fiber glassing in temperature of 45 degrees and higher using the slow epoxy. Then I waited 3 days to a week for it to set enough to work on. I tried to bring up my garage temperature using two electric heaters but after a couple of hours I could only increase the garage temperature about 10 degrees so I quit that. But you will find we have some warmer winter days that you can take advantage of them and work like crazy. The next two or three days in our area the weather is going to be in the 50’s.
