The joinery is finished and the kitchen cart is ready for glue up. There are enough parts and the finished cart will be heavy enough I decided to ask a friend over to help in the glue up.
Here are the sticks:

Exciting no? If you look at the background there's the lath, vac, shave horse, and lumber storage. Big whop.
I really should make a video of the glue up, two deaf, hard headed OF's with bad backs trying to fit together the puzzle before the glue sets. Hilarity should ensue. BTW, my first plan was to use hot hide glue but even though Tucson is warming the open time would be pretty short so I decided to just go with Old Brown glue....that should cut down of the fun factor.

Will hide glue melt under washing and cleaning? My choice is Ammonia or bleach for grease and dirt.

ReplyDeleteYep, hot hide glue will”melt” water and heat. As this is the base that shouldn’t be a problem. The top will use Titebond III.
