>Do the People having problems with wooden frames coming apart use wood glue? I have always used glue (Titebond) with nails. Waterproof glue is much stronger than nails but the nails help clamp the wood together to allow a proper drying of the glue and help provide a backup if the glue fails. When out in the field a failure of a "glue only" frame is hard to repair. With nails a few taps with the hive tool can save a larger problem. I am finding that the frames that give me the most problems have a kind of double notch in the in the bottom and side bar joint. One half of the joint likes to come lose along a split in the wood. Other frames that have a simple U shaped joint have not given me any problems....yet
