What glue is good for adhering rocks to each other?
+5
Looking for a certain glue to make river rock coasters for your coffee cup. Tried hot glue and lol 1 second hold.I'll be filling the middle in with more rocks. Thanks! And in hopes for indoor outdoor use
Are you wanting to glue these little rocks on to a backing, with the hope to make them into flat coasters?
As the rocks shown above are not uniform thickness or shape, and do not have any sides that are flat, this will be very difficult.
Here is one link showing the project with smaller polished pebbles.
I would suggest that you keep checking how level the placement of the individual pebbles are by putting a mug with liquid on top of them, before they are firmly pasted on: place, check, then paste.

M-6000
you can buy it anywhere, it’s cheap and holds permanently. This stuff is amazing!
Best solution is to have a solid backing to glue the stones to. Use a two part epoxy glue.
E6000
Gorila glue worked for me but you need a backing for you your rocks
For this use E 6000 and glue it to a solid back.
