    Do it yourself golf mat

    Anyone have suggestions for what to use to bond turf to those blocks you can u that fit together like a puzzle? I tried using spray adhesive with no luck. Could have been too cold outside for the glue to take effect? Next up is gorilla glue unless someone else has a better suggestion?

    I would try either contact cement, or a glue called Goop. It comes in a tube and you can usually find it at places like Home Depot. It's really good for bonding materials like plastic and rubber together. It works kind of like contact cement. You are going to have to use lots of it though...

    I bought a container of indoor/outdoor carpet adhesive and works fine. I used a V notched trowel since I needed a pretty thick layer since I was glueing a mat without any backing and needed to fill all the nooks and crannies.

    I'm currently trying the same thing and have had some luck with contact cement in warm and dry conditions. Weldbond, which the Home Depot employee assured me would work, was marginally successful but still wasn't dry after a three day wait. Consider bringing things inside or waiting for warmer weather if that's not possible. Next step may be the carpet adhesive for me since I have to glue turf to the puzzle pieces as well; all the better if it works to stick several layers of foam rubber together.
