You have to cut down a faux tree from a doctor's or dentist's office and mill it yourself.

laughing6-hehe Excellent explanation Todd. But your puns are a little off. It's actually pronounced "fuh", not "foh". The best I've seen is a place in Seattle area called "What The Pho" :lol:

And I always thought faux bound referred to routing the slots without cutting all the way to the edge, thus looking bound but not actually having to glue anything. So "faux bound look" is indeed correct here, even though it is really fully and not fauxly bound :geek:

I use LMI white glue, and a dull x-acto knife to clean the slots before it dries. Slide it along the bottom of the slot into the corner to get underneath the glue, then tilt it up and it squeezes up and out. Gotta hurry though, LMI white sets up pretty quick.
