I am not sure if this is the correct forum or not, but I have had a couple of glue failures with TBIII.
We have had some fairly cold weather (for us) here in Central Texas over the last month. I edge glued some oak, and was cutting a DT on one of the pieces when the joint failed. The joint looked kind of funny (chalky?)
Yesterday I glued a piece of mesquite which had failed along a crack. After leaving it overnight (about 15 hours of clamp time), when I removed the clamps, it very easily failed again with just putting light hand pressure on it. The temperature here yesterday was around 60, and maybe got down to 50 overnight.
My question is:
1. Do you think my glue failures are due to the cold weather?
2. If TBIII sees temperatures below freezing, does that ruin it?
3. What do you guys up north with no heat in your shop, do with your glue; take it inside at night?
I appreciate all input in advance.
