Orwar Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Trolling is, in my mind at least, a deliberate attempt to destabilize conduct and provoke outrage; rather the opposite of my intent with this thread. But who knows - if I vanish, don't trust the note left behind! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orwar Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Just now, Akane Nacht said: why are you passionate about adhesives? Because I'm a bookbinder, and whilst a lot of people prefer modern, synthetic adhesives, I regard them with a great deal of skepticism and consider the health of the books to be of greater import than the temporary convenience of the bookbinder. Hide glue and starch paste has been used for centuries and have proven their reliability (and we're well aware of their drawbacks and are thus well-equipped to deal with such), whereas PVA and EVA glues haven't proven themselves yet. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always a mistake to use anything on the internet after consuming too much alcohol or too little tea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
