GuitarJigs.Com: Hide Glue

Hide Glue

Our Hide Glue has a 192 gram strength, and a high clarity (transparent) appearance. 
Hide glue has been used for thousands of years, and is considered by many to be the premier guitar making glue. 
The dry glue is first mixed with water, then heated to 145°F in a glue pot or double boiler. 
The hot hide glue can then be poured into small glue bottles (see below) or a cup, and placed in the fridge to cool (just like Jell-O). 
When needed, you simply re-heat the glue to 145°F and apply. 
Hide glue starts to set as it cools, so quick assembly is required. Warming the surfaces to be glued will help extend the open time.
