contact cement

This is what I've come to believe. No substitute for most applications. Not that perform equally, anyway. In my experience. 

So much leather...so little time.

Hi Roland and welcome to Leatherworker!

This glue here https://schuhbedarf.de/klebstoffe/klebstoff-dosen/haller-hirschkleber-innenkleber-lederkleber-das-original-600gr.-dose.html

is what I would use. Barge's or any other contact cement certainly work, but Hirschkleber is all natural and doesn't have the awful smell of the solvent based cements. Also, a little goes along way; that 600g tub will last you for a long time. I've had mine for ten years and it's not even half gone. If it turns thick over time, just mix a little water in it.

I also second what Mattsbagger said above!

Good Luck and post some pics when you're done :)!

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?

Forbid it, Almighty God!

I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!
