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

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

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

Step1
Use a plastic water bottle with a squeeze cap.
Step2
Soak the bottle's original label in water until you can easily remove it, then let the bottle dry.
Step3
Use a small funnel to fill the bottle with glue.
Step4
Replace the bottle cap.
Step5
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.
