I’m building a workbench for a canoe club’s unheated utility shed/workshop. There is a possibility, but not high likelihood, of the workbench being subjected to flooding. I’m considering Gorilla glue for its water resistant properties, but also for its gap-filling qualities. The tenon surfaces are cut by a carbide-tipped band saw and are therefore slightly rough.
My only use of Gorilla glue has been in glued and screwed lap-joints of large garden gates that have stood the test of time. I’m aware of the general messiness of using this glue and am not concerned. However, the mortise and tenon joints will not be reinforced by screws, so I wonder if Gorilla glue is strong enough.
Would Gorilla glue or Titebond III be the better choice for this mortise and tenon application? The choice is about gap-filling and strength.
