Ever hear about the horses that don't win
enough races getting turned into glue? There's something to that. Let's make our own natural glue!
Here's a gentleman showing us one way to do it:
Minimum requirements:
- Make a half a cup of hide glue flakes
- Can also use sinew or other historical animal glue sources
Provide proof of the following as pictures or
video (<2 min):
- The ingredients you're going to use
- The cooked down hide in liquid form
- Finished flakes in a cup measure
