Hello everyone,
What is the best kind of glue to use for bridge? Also we are using balsa and bass wood, is there any other kind of wood that is good for bridge? If it makes a difference I am in division B

Hi! I made a video on glue and gluing techniques you might enjoy:

The short answer to your question is CA glue. I prefer 50cps.
Balsa and bass are the correct choices for this competition depending on the situation. I have some other basic videos on my channel about this event you'd probably benefit from.
This one is specifically targeted at teams just starting out:

And this one about creating a balsa library is a good way to see how to create your materials:

Good luck!!
