Titebond wood glue has been around for over 65 years and sets the standard for woodworker’s glue. Titebond has three main glue products:

• Titebond Original Wood Glue
• Titebond 2 Premium Wood Glue, and,
• Titebond 3 Ultimate Wood Glue.

With several options for woodworkers, one of the most commonly asked questions is, “What is the difference between Titebond wood glues?”

Before we talk about the differences, the glues have a few similarities:

• All Titebond wood glues are exceptional products for everyday woodworker needs.
• Each glue is water-based which allows for easy cleanup with a wet rag.
• Each is also FDA approved for food contact projects.

For anyone who regularly uses glue, such as woodworkers and mosaic artists, this might just be the best gift ever! Great for glue, paint thinners, solvents, and more!

In short, the 16 oz. Glubot and 4oz. Babebot, offer positive control of your glue application to a work surface. Sounds simple, right? Yet there is much, much more.

Glubot, and its smaller counterpart the Babebot, are two-chamber systems with one chamber to refill the glue, and a second chamber to dispense

Often times, cabinet doors are designed to lay on top of the cabinet opening. When the cabinet is closed, its door – which is slightly wider than the opening it covers – comes to rest against the exterior face of the cabinet itself and conceals an area of the cabinet frame or panel. This type of design is known as an “overlay” because it literally lays over the front of the cabinets.

Simply put, cabinet overlay is the space that your cabinet door covers the frame or panel of your cabinet, on the hinge side of the door.

Measuring the Overlay

Measuring the door’s overlay is one of the critical steps you’ll need to take when preparing to install a cabinet door or replace existing hinges. If the overlay is not measured properly, then the door won’t lay correctly over the cabinet. When measured incorrectly, the cabinet door will either extend too far (and touch the door that it is next to), or it will not extend far enough
