Hello I was looking at tight bonds hot glue system today.
My questions are Has anyone out there used it?
How strong is it?
How long dose the glue last? How much glue is in a tube?
Basicly I would like to hear.What you think about this system. Is it worth the price. $89.00 for the set, and $9.00 per tube.?
IT sounds pretty nice, But is it?

I'd say save your money.
I bought one in a fit of equipment mania, and I'm sorry I did.
The main problem is the glue. Once you open a tube for use, you pretty much have to use it up within a relatively short time. So, if you use three dabs today, and then let it sit for a month or two, that tube is down the drain.
The glue itself is good -- better than hot melt, not as strong as wood glue, though.
If you're planning on using it for something where you can reasonably expect to use up the glue tube in a day or two, then I think it is a good system.
Hope that helps.
