Gluing Headers

=============

   For my headers, I just use white school glue straight from the bottle - any brand that's on sale.  I run a small bead along the edge that will be knotted & smear it flat with the end of the glue bottle.  At the end of the rug, I weave the header, weave in some thick spacer filler & then weave the next header right away.  Then I glue them both & go take a quick break.  This way, the glue has time to soak in & dry & I don't get it all over my chest!

   I use Elmers glue, diluted with equal parts of water, squirted right out of the bottle and I find that it dries quickly and does not bead up like 100% Elmers.  If it tends to bead up I just run my finger along the bead of glue; but usually after a few minutes it soaks in.

   On headers I've used the non-fray types of glue and also the "gel" type of school glue.  Just apply a bead and run my finger tip across it to help it soak in.
