[Ansteorra] Adhesive!

[Alexandria Doyle]

I think the first question is what do you want to glue?  If you check
out Cennino d'Andrea Cennini 's Craftmans Handbook
<http://www.amazon.com/Craftsmans-Handbook-Libro-dell-Arte/dp/048620054X>
he has listed several glues, including cheese and lime, fish and goat.
 These were the glues used in an artist's shop.  He also mentions a
"cement" for mending pottery.

So much to do and so little attention span to get it done with…

Because it lasted for over 2000 years, but I'm thinking a resin might be overkill, and then I don't know if it's necessarily clear. I just know that it stuck King Tut in his sarcophagus. Anyway, if you have recipes or anything, I'd looove to know! Thanks!
