just wondering what would be better for making a skate. i'm making a 5 ply birch skate, 3-stage 2"(ish) rocker, would titebond III be better to use? or would PL premium?

If you have to use one of the two, use the titebond III, pl construction adhesive has a similar consistancy to calk and is very thick, and will be difficult to spread thin cosistant. It would not be a good choice for laying up laminate in a wakeskate. I would use Multibond Sk8 from Franklin adhesives makers of titebond. Titebond III is a non flexable wood glue for furnature, Multibond skate is almost the same glue but has an addative to make it more flexable.
