#glue

1 post1 participant0 posts today

The other day realized that I was out of super-glue.

This evening I got #glue while I was out. I got "Loc-Tite Professional Liquid" super-glue at Michael's. I had used "Loc-Tite Ultra Control Gel" super-glue before, and I have to say, they weren't kidding about the "control" in that branding.

This new super-glue has 0 adjustment time while before I had at least a second of adjustment when parts came together. So I have to learn to be a bit more careful in my #miniatures assembly.

Traversing the dirt roads surrounding Donkerbroek often proved treacherous, never knowing what would lurk admit the trees or the far stretched meadows; the falsehoods of serenity shattered when the great black buck had spotted you

You'd better run now

No, not towards the city of refuge. Nay. The Devil had been long eradicated from our village. Back when the swaps and heathers had been changed into farmlands and fields of grass. Yet, while he was not Satan himself, Dieuwke's Bok was still capable enough of breaking a bone or two

So, you'd better run now

Have found A Useful Site (if you need it) & Lovely Rabbit Hole (if you don't):

A website of recommendations for gluing This To That (#fabric to #leather, #ceramic to #vinyl, #styrofoam to #rubber, etc.), plus a trivia page & funny FAQs.

Enjoy! 😊

www.thistothat.comThis to That (Glue Advice)How to glue this to that

Here are some of the glues I use and what I use them for!

E6000 - Good for most beadwork projects, but takes some time to dry.

Loctite Gel - I use this a lot for gluing centers and backings on applique projects. Dries fast but also hard, so I don't use it on the edges of a project where I need to stitch through.

ZAP-A-GAP - For gluing the ends of paracord bead-wrapping projects into end clasps.

G-S Hypo Cement - For precision gluing with the needle-tip applicator.

Why yes, I was using a small paintbrush to brush glue onto something and then absent mindedly put the paintbrush into my hair to make sure I didn't lose it.

Luckily it's cheap PVC glue and so relatively easy to wash out but ::sheesh::

This kind of ass-hattery is why I mostly only use PVC and only use stronger glues with requested supervision ! 🤣
