Toolbox: Adhesives

All you have to do spread the adhesive on one surface then take the other piece, press them together, separate the pieces to make sure you get good coverage, put the pieces back together...and in five minutes, it'll be set.

Always wear gloves when using this stuff because it's real hard to get off your hands. Gun-applied adhesives are especially good for backing up screws and giving nails more holding power. Also, on the tube, it'll tell you what the glue is good for joining, like wood to brick or plastic to wood. And always remember to read and follow the directions on the tube.
