Too much time for just for one piece of @deckorators? #deck #carpentry #build

What happens here

Apply a thin, even bead of cyanoacrylate (CA) adhesive, such as Loctite Super Glue Professional Liquid Adhesive, to one of the mating surfaces of the composite joint. Immediately after applying the glue, spray a CA accelerator (like Starbond Accelerator) onto the other mating surface. This combination will create an instant and very strong bond. Carefully align the two pieces and press them firmly together, holding them in place for a few seconds until the adhesive sets completely.

Goal: Securely glue the two composite pieces together to form the corner trim.
