>I got this tip from someone on this forum and it worked for me. Use a hair drier and aim it on the bottom of the greem wood blank. after several minutes, maybe 5 or a little more. It dries the surface out and then I used titebond II glue. It is water resistant. Let it dry good and it will hold. I was skeptical but had no problems. I had tried differnet kind of even epoxies without the drying and nothing worked. but the hair drier trick did the job.

>I use medium or thick CA glue. I've heard that Gorilla glue works but haven't tried it. I mount most of my green blanks between centers and turn them leaving a tenon. Then I either grab the tenon with my chuck or put screws in the tenon.
