New (to Me) Gluer


I picked up this little gem yesterday. I had beed using silicone to glue my drawer bottoms/euro cabinet backs. I haven't had any problems using this method until my last job.


Apparently the silicone hadn't completely set up before I put my drawers in the cabinets and it glued the drawer slides to the drawer bottoms. The bond was so tight that when it came time to pull the drawers for finishing I broke 3 sets of Blumotion slides to the tune of $63.00

One of the shops I used to work for had several of these and I was always impressed with the speed and bond strength. Just don't get any hot melt on yourself, it's just a shade under 400 degrees.
