Caramelized sugar does not add strength to flan! It's dissolved by the hot
liquid. It adds flavor!

SFWIW, resorcinal is the weapon of choice when gluing white oak.
Epoxy is not a good choice for white oak.

glue of choice for exterior joinery. Simpler to make up than epoxy -
what is it, powder into liquid or the other way around? I forget.
Seems like it could be a bit harder to find though, right? I mean I
don't recall seeing it at HD.
And, uh, not to ruffle feathers, but also not gap filling. Joints should
be well fit. I suppose you could say it would add strength across a
gap,(like polyurethane, too) but only like caramelized sugar adds
strength to flan.
