Re: UPDATE: Building Small Cabinets by Doug Stowe

Love a chance for Doug's book. It would be added to the others I have on small boxes. He writes and illustrates with great easy to understand detail.

Nice job, At first I thought the ribbons were just ribbon. Make them with soaking the wood and heat?

Re: Hide Glue

Hi Dave,

If you want to add a piece of glue chipped glass to a project you can just coat the piece of regular[not tempered] glass with hide glue on one side. depending on the thickness of your glue coat will change the amount of chipping that happens as the glue cools overnight. Stronger glue, larger chips. Great patterns kind of like jack frost. Have fun, Don
