Alain, it was a great day until now. Excuse me while I go puke! I've had it grow hair after a couple months in the fridge, but yours sounds like the glue was bacteria-laden with something funky!

Maybe my little story is no reflection of the depths of despair that Kurtz must have felt, reaching deeper into the Heart of Darkness, but still... I just bought a new batch of Hide Glue from Lee Valley. I set about adding some distilled water to my granules when right away I can tell something is amiss. There are bubbles rolling about and the concoction is starting to turn a vile, if not worrisome, green. After a while all the water is absorbed and I decide to heat it up. As it's melting, the most fetid stench is starting to permeate my whole shop. I will try not to nauseate you, gentle readers, with an explicit account of what abominable apparitions I witnessed in my hotpot; suffice it to say that the monster from the black lagoon would of been proud... Today when I mustered enough courage to open my glue cotainer, through the wafting fumes, I swear I saw it wink at me! |

Sounds like you got either the fish glue, or the ectoplasm glue. I'm betting on the latter. |
