A sticky question indeed, because my “favorite” would depend on what I’m gluing up, and why. Each glue has it’s own quality suited to the application.
I wouldn’t use CA glue for veneering. I wouldn’t use PVA glue for anything under a bending strain, like a longbow. I wouldn’t use epoxy for anything that may need future disassembly, like a chair. I wouldn’t use hide glue for anything that would get wet, like a boat.
I think I’ll pass on this poll, and see what you come up with next, sorry.
Hey Tom glad to see someone reaching out. I agree with all that is said, but to just get to a quick answer it’s titebond 111. I just go thru it more than anything else that’s all.
Hey Tom, I agree with Tom(the not you version:p)).
But, for the day to day Titebond II. Love the new “Woodworker Profiles”. You’re introducing me to a lot of new faces. BTW, Your beer’s gettin’ warm.

Titebond III for all normal work. Plastic Resin is used for waterproof and most laminate work.

That’s cool… Just trying to get a handle on what everyone prefers on a day-to-day basis…
