Members plinkercases Posted January 3, 2019 Members Report Posted January 3, 2019 I just could not bring myself to pay 60 plus buck for a real glue pot as i am not at the bench enough these days.... so after a few combinations of bits and pieces i ended up with a 11 dollar dog kong and 4 dollar walmart spice jar. Bingo. Seals fantastic.

bikermutt07 Posted January 4, 2019 Report Posted January 4, 2019 Nice. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted January 4, 2019 Contributing Member Report Posted January 4, 2019 Sweet. Does it come in colors? Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.
Members ScoobyNewbie Posted January 4, 2019 Members Report Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) The Kong comes in colors... oooo! Pier 1 and world market have cool bottles that are squatty or pyramidal! Less tippy! Edited January 4, 2019 by ScoobyNewbie Quote
Members VYO Posted January 4, 2019 Members Report Posted January 4, 2019 Great idea! Quote CB 3200, Consew P1206RB, Craftool Pro burnisher, 3000mw desktop laser engraver, PointZero Dual Action Airbrush, Psuedo regad, HF 20 ton clicker, Silhouette Cameo and Cricut

Contributing Member LatigoAmigo Posted January 4, 2019 Contributing Member Report Posted January 4, 2019 This is available for less than $20 (including shipping) from Amazon. It is a Best-Test Plastic Cement Dispenser. I have been very happy with it. Quote
bikermutt07 Posted January 4, 2019 Report Posted January 4, 2019 One of the wood working supply places had the gravity style dispensers for like 12 bucks awhile back. But, I can't remember which one.

alpha2 Posted January 4, 2019 Report Posted January 4, 2019 Nice idea. Not sure what the effect would be of my dog seeing her favorite toy stuck in a glue pot, though! That Kong is the ONLY toy she hasn't destroyed. Yet. Jeff Quote So much leather...so little time.
Members plinkercases Posted January 4, 2019 Author Members Report Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Latigo i will have a look but amazon canada did not provide many results and it is getting harder and harder for us Canuks to order from Amazon US Update... that very bottle on amazon ca is 107-125 dollars Canadian before shipping taxes duty and our now famous Boarder handling charges... i still with a kong in a spice jar...

kgg Posted January 4, 2019 Report Posted January 4, 2019 I like your glue pot, simple and effective. All you need to do now is get the cost of the top down. Wow what a difference between the Amazon US and Canadian sites for the same simple item. That is why some of us Canadians who live close to the border (1/2 hour drive) have a American address for companies who won't ship to Canada and for companies who offer free shipping within the US. It wouldn't be feasible for one small purchase but on the larger or multi items it can save you a lot. kgg Quote Juki DNU - 1541S, Juki DU - 1181N, Singer 29K - 71(1949), Chinese Patcher (Tinkers Delight), Warlock TSC-441, Techsew 2750 Pro, Consew DCS-S4 Skiver

Wow, this is the result of trade negotiations? Sounds like a lose-lose result, with dog bones stuck in glue pots (great idea, btw!). 1 hour ago, alpha2 said: Not sure what the effect would be of my dog seeing her favorite toy stuck in a glue pot, though! Perhaps just get one of those rubber stoppers with a hole in the center instead? Pretty cheap on Amazon also, could probably find one at your local hardware store...
