The best glue for wood/wood is Urac185(or its new substitute) but TiteBondIII works well too.

I use tite bond 2 or 3 for all tip overlays I've never had a failure with it

smokey I use tite bond 3 for all my glueups, it has a longer work time than tb2 and if you get a bad glueup it will release with heat

I haven't tried TB3 but i have never had a failure glueing overlays with tb2 on red oak.
