[NFB-Blind-Crafters] World's worst gluer

[Bernice Bird]

I'm right there with you. I hate gluing, because I'm awful about it. I try
to stay away from projects that use glue.

Subject: [NFB-Blind-Crafters] World's worst gluer

 

I am the world's worst gluer.  I'm sure there are second-graders who do a
better job than I do.

I put the glue on the wood, then by the time I'd got it all in the right
positions there was no glue, so I had to try again.  I hope I got enough to
hold.  I certainly got a lot on my fingers.

The only glue I have is Aleene's.  I used to try to use more serious,
grown-up glue, but I'd spend hours getting it off my fingers, and still with
questionable results.

I was putting the glue on my finger, then swiping it on the wood to be
glued.  Not sure if it would work better to put the glue on the wood.

Any advice about gluing technique?

Tracy
