I constantly see people who build furniture with modern styles with traditional techniques. Dovetails, important woods, beautiful veneers, many hours of work, a lot of effort. And then always stick with modern glues, aliphatic resins, vinyl, and so on. And if 100 years from now someone will have to repair them? How do I remove a sheet of veneer? How unmounting a joint without breaking it? The Hide glue for me is always the best. Take time and experience but I can fix problems without even a piece of furniture in 1600 without having doubts. Actually do not understand why build a piece entirely handmade, hand planing, sawing dovetails perfectly and then paste it all with a modern glue. Are great for disposable items such as a kitchen, a closet, the bathroom furniture or for the garden. Buy them, use them and then one day they throw away.Federiconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695685403802703716.post-73782740466797276462015-01-22T18:17:04.220-08:002015-01-22T18:17:04.220-08:00I read the New York Times article and it implays t...I read the New York Times article and it implays that someone 'up stairs' ordered repaired ASAP like yesterday and so...<br />I agree, the first run is First, do no harm.Rev Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10990525873431527977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4695685403802703716.post-75423116471108690972015-01-22T15:37:13.236-08:002015-01-22T15:37:13.236-08:00This is the best read I have had in a long time.
