Hi! Now you have a fish bladder glue, but how will you use it?. It should gel when you use it too! Mix it with hide glue! It can hold if it's not gelling, but better if it gels before drying.
(If I were you I would use only hide glue)

hi robin :) , yes I plan to use it with hide or might even replace it completely with sinew glue.. is it OK if I use cow or sheep sinew for glue? I'm already got water buffalo rear leg sinew, unfortunately it didn't come economical enough to use as a glue..

Hi! I have used cow sinew for a glue. That was ok. Sheep should be ok too.
Dry it first and remove the fat before cooking!

my trouble is some thing add to glue or made glue as more than 70-100C, the big molecule in glue will be concretion like the plastic , some times the fine made glue can not dissolve by times and temp :lol:
