Joshua Brackett talks Furniture Restoration

[@newapologist]

Hey Joshua, glad I found you. Your insights are very valuable. I first found you on Woodshop Life Podcast discussing color theory. I wanted to ask you if there are any good books about color theory for woodworkers. Also, any good references on furniture repair and restoration. I appreciate you and what you do, good ethical business. Thank you!

I'm a traditional cabinet maker who uses mainly hide glue or rabbit skin glue which as a higher bloom strength then hide, regarding gorilla glue the d3 PVA is very good especially on splice work etc it's got a bit of elasticity to it and is very strong once set, all the foam type polyurethane glues are rubbish they never create a strong bond as they don't adhere to the wood like hide or PVA based glues. They are for site workers fitting handrails etc to gap fill their price work.
