What glue works best (strongest and fastest) for glueing veneers using the stack method?

Mc2 said:IMHO West system and titebond dry too slow. Those glues will work best for the miter method. It would take too long to glue veener and wait to dry befor you stacked another one on. I have used med. ca with good results. If I switched to miter method West would be best. Again IMHo.

Also does anyone know where I can get a saw blade like the one in the cue component video?

If you look at the video, he loads the Veneers from the top. That means that the blade has to be adjusted every single time you build a cue unless you are always using the same thickness veneers. To me that would take forever. I guess if you used a Radial Arm Saw instead so that the blade is cutting down, it wouldn't ever require adjustment, but holding those thin veneer strips in by the edges and keeping them from bowing while leaving enough room for the blade would seem like a real pain as well.
It takes me under 15 minutes to miter and glue up a set of veneers for a 4 point cue. It also took me going through every single piece of equipment I own to find a solution that works good for me, then a few weeks later, somebody posted a jig that was almost an exact replica of what I came up with and he'd been using it for 20 years or so.
