Glueing up corian?

[L6steel]

Hey guys, I have a slab of corian I'm thinking of glueing up and turning on my lathe. What would be the best glue to use, epoxy or super glue?
Thanks up front!!!!

they make a special 2 part epoxy but i'll ask my buddy who works with the stuff every day what to use.

I've done a little work with solid surface material on knives... I used acra 20 or acra weld not sure which, but those are the only epoxies I've ever used for knives and they've been holding up solid.

That stuff is basically acrylic plastic. I've had a lot of luck with IPS weldon #4 with other acrylics, though this stuff may be crosslinked and react differently, I don't know.

I wouldn't trust super glue.

I'd rough up the surface really well and clean it with a solvent if I was using epoxy.

just my .02

the white is better in my book and does not expand as much.
