Ron's Cabinet Work for the 2013 Season
#32

I will not comment on Mr. Richmond's reputation but let's just say he is not the only one out there who does this for a living, as hard as that is for some to believe.
But let's see, if hide glue is so great how come you have to go out of your way to get it? Its just so wonderful that nobody uses it anymore except a discerning few. Here's another thought go get some natural rubber bias ply tires for your car while you are at it, and hoses, and belts too. Maybe we should also switch back to using pot metal, and make repro knobs out of Tenite plastic as well, not the improved Tenite II but Tenite I? Lead based paint, wallpaper glue made out of flour, all of that stuff was so much better before modern chemistry got in the way, everyone knows that.
If you want to use glue made from dead cows and horses like they did 100 years ago be my guest, but don't try to argue that it's the best thing on earth before you go and try it.
Regards
Arran
