5am Hide glue

(1/1)

woodswalker:
Yup that is right 5am couldn't sleep so decided to try and make some hide glue for the first time. :o      Well now here is the real fun part, I'm using dog chew raw hide. I am having to let it soak first to let the ties loosen up first so as to untie before cutting smaller. Then to the simmer stage ( All of this is from hear say and videos ). I have not heard if making the glue will stink I hope not considering the wife will wake up turn to this  >:D   then turn me to glue. Advice welcome for next go around considering have already started this batch.

Pappy:
What I have made didn't stink,at least in my noise,but of course I do mine in and out side shop. ;) :) Don't think Miss Joanie would go for that in her kitchen. ;) :)

I make my hide glue in the garage.  To me it doesn't have a bad smell but to the wife apparently it smells like I'm cooking roadkill  ::)
