Nat1 Report post Posted January 18, 2014 Hi, I know that traditional leather workers and shoemakers have made their own glue in the past. I would love to have some recipes or tips for making my own leather craft glue. Hopefully someone has some direct experience in this matter. * I'm not talking about contact cement, obviously, but the 'white glue' which is non-toxic and is sufficient for temporary bonds or for holding materials prior to stitching. Thanks! Nathan http://soulpathshoes.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Myself, I'm more than happy to pay Weldwood for the development of their fine product. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
