How to Store Wood Glue

If you love to buy wood glue in gallon jugs, but hate trying to pour out small drops, use this handy bottle creation.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Wood Glues
• Permanent Markers
• Water Bottles With Squeeze Caps
• Permanent markers

1. Use a plastic water bottle with a squeeze cap.

2. Soak the bottle's original label in water until you can easily remove it, then let the bottle dry.

3. Use a small funnel to fill the bottle with glue.

4. Replace the bottle cap.

5. Use a permanent marker and label the outside of the bottle "Wood Glue."

Tips & Warnings

• A squeeze mustard bottle also makes a handy bottle.
• If you don't have a small funnel, roll up a piece of paper to use like a funnel. Squeeze out excess glue into the plastic bottle and toss the paper in the trash.

on 11/22/2005 Never store the glue in a place where the temperature will go below freezing. It will turn the glue into a gel and make it very hard to deal with.
