badLoveLeather Report post Posted September 7, 2013 Recently I moved my studio. AGAIN. Too many moves over the past few years. Now Im in a garage with no AC and its been hot here in Ojai. So the heat the hasn't been kind to my glue pot and I ran out of thinner. So I dumped the half rubber barge out and decided it was gonna be a good time to clean my glue pot. The photos below illustrate my pain. Glue Can 0 Leatherworker 1 Can't wait for the heat to go Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlapaglia Report post Posted September 7, 2013 Nice work, How long did that take and how many beers? I have to commend your tenacity. I would have tried to clean it then thrown it out and bought a new one. Well done sir. Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b2k Report post Posted September 7, 2013 holy cow, the first photos shows a facehugger egg, not a glue pot! My sincerest compliments, I would have set fire to the thing in frustration! :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

badLoveLeather Report post Posted September 8, 2013 Oh and BTW your responses made me laugh guys. Thanks! That endeavor in other times may have caused me to toss it. I gave away the other clean new glue pot a few years ago. Amazing what necessity pushes us to do. Right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted September 8, 2013 I don't like those Teflon glue pots. The plastic ones with the long stem lids work much better at keeping the cement from drying out... Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
