So im planning to make a machete with a handle made out of mahagony and apple. What glue should i use to glue them thogether? epoxy or woodglue?
 
If you want it to stay, West System G-flex! If you want fast, 5 minute epoxy would work.
 
Yea i would have to say G-Flex. Love that stuff. Usually runs about 15 bucks and lasts awhile so you will have plenty for other projects.

If there is a marina with a Ships Store or a marine accessory store like West Marine near you, check with them. West System is widely used in the marine industry on both fiberglass and wood boats.
If they do not stock the G Flex, they should be able to order it for you.
 
Welp but I’m not going to pay 11-20 bud for shipping. And as for the ships stores, no there aren’t any here.
 
Hmm, ty ill see if i can order that stuff, pretty cheap. Hm i just looked up the g flex epoxy, its in amazon and its not that pricy, could be getting that. idk
