Hide-Glue
This hide-glue, one of the oldest kinds of glue, comes in a firm jelly-like form.
I use hide-glue along with other glues like PVA, Epoxy and Polyurethane depending on the type of joinery.
Cured hide-glue can be reconstituted with warm water so you can disassemble parts of furniture without damaging joints.
This special character of hide-glue allows me to change various details, in the early stages of designing and development, without wasting wood. |
