I haven't tried white glue, but yellow is setting too fast. For poly,
my plan was to apply glue to the slots, and then dip the biscuits in
water before insertion.
Thankyou.

Should work just fine. Keep in mind, though, that it'll make a foamy mess.
But, nothing that a little elbow grease can't fix.

Titebond Extend, with a longer open time. Or maybe slightly thin the
yellow glue you've been using. Maybe by wetting the disposable brush
before spreading.

Guys,
I've used probably used 200,000 biscuits, Yellow Elmers is the best I've
found in 20 years. Assembly time is acceptable. I rarely have a failure of
