    Which Glue ?

    Hello Folk's

    Just a quick question, I have been busy cutting out some of the wonderful templates on this site (thank you so much to all who share) and wondered if anyone has any tips on the best way to stick intricate items like scrolls etc I seem to spend many hours going blind with cocktail sticks and tacky PVA !!

    Thanks
    Mosey

    Another vote for spray adhesive! I'm hoping to get one of the xyron machines though. I've got the sticker maker but want to get the 5 or 9 inch one.

    I have one too, but it keeps clogging up, even with a pin in it or having it upside-down in a cup with a damp tissue at the bottom, when I'm actually using it, and still it doesn't stay free flowing.
    Any tips Shirley

    I pretty sure i have the same fine glue nozzle as mine keeps playing up even when kept upside down. The only way around this i have found is to squeeze it until it wont let anymore glue out then put the pin back in and shake the bottle to move it towards the tip. I do store it upside and at the beginning it worked fine but now its driving me nuts. Any help greatly recieved
