Plastic Resin Glue??

Not like hide glue other than color. IIRC DAP Weldwood makes it. It is a brown powder that you mix with water. I recall using it in shop class when I was in school.

Try:

Good stuff where legal. Urea formaldehyde resin.

I'm not sure what the beef against it is in those few states where it can't be sold.

Main complaint with Urea Formaldehyde is it is a carcinogen.

Nope. It's plastic resin glue. It does have a longer open time than say yellow glue but not as long as true hide glue. I use prg to glue up bent laminations. SH

At what exposure levels?? Or is this one of those Republic of Kalifornia things where just about ANYTHING is a carcinogen in big enough or long enough exposure???

Ummm, that is only true in California though, right? ;~)

I have a bag of charcoal that has a warning label for California residents.

What does it say, "Don't hold briquets in bare hand after you've lit them on fire?"

"Slowhand" yellow glue but not as long as true hide glue. I use prg to glue up bent

For bent laminations, PRG has the added benefit of not being susceptible to creep like a lot of other glues.

And, after all those labels, desensitized to warnings.

I'm surprised they don't try to hang a warning tag on each oxygen molecule.
