Good day creekers,
yesterday, I was puting together a small side table I made and I used liquid hide glue from Old Brown Glue and it's a great glue, long open time so no need to panic if you forgot a clamp or two... It clean easely with water and it is reversable... Not easely reversable but duable! I never used real hide glue but this one is more user friendly, I think anyway! The glue as to be wormed up first, they suggest to put it in the sun or in hot water(do not put the glue pot in the micro-wave, it could eated up to fast) so I choose the hot water bath. In a few minuts, you have nice warm glue the consistence of maple sirupp... Hummm, maple sirup... but not the same smel and taste! I apply it with a small brush. It's almost to ease to use
Do any of you have use the real hide glue and liquid hide glue and how they compare??
I would love to ear about it!
