“This glue is more watery... “ Why do I see a future episode of WyrmLyfe? Glue-gate to compliment felt-gate.

Yo, Doug, I think you guys need to REALLY start looking at everything you use on a consumable basis like this and going for bulk buy. You guys going from 5 gal buckets to this bulk ton just saved y'all about $1553 on glue. When y'all were buying per pallet of glue, you were getting about 1,289 lbs of glue for about $2700. That's about $2.10 per pound. With a single container containing 2,458 lbs of glue, costing $3,595, that is now $1.46 per barrel. That's a 45% savings. So with Y'all going through that 27 Gallon pallet at about 1 every 2 months, You're spending about $16,200 per year. Going to 1 ton bulk now means You'll be going through about 3 of those per year. $11,311 per year. Yo, that savings is more than my car costs. Y'all need to be checking out what else y'all can buy in bulk....

couldn't they change their joint design to be glue-less, press fit joint together while the wood is steam, so to speak ? that way you don't even need to worry about the supply of glue at all. Unless the cost of changing design is costing way more than hunting down potential glue supply.

@IMRifley

2 жыл бұрын

@@keenheat3335 No, actually. If you haven't watched their latest video, you should. You'll see exactly why they need so much glue. Most of it isn't for joining sections together, but actually for making the wood the size they need, because most of the slats aren't as big as you'd think.

That's an IBC, or Intermediate Bulk Container. They're meant to hold industrial fluids (including fuel) in fork-liftable quantities that manage better than tanker trucks and fixed storage in industrial settings. That's a 275gal size, so your glue has an appx. 1.08 specific gravity assuming the fill level is right on. If 5gal is $100, you're looking at about $5500, not counting the cost of the container (about $650 from McMaster).

As woodworkers I would hope they realize that not all glue is created equal. They may have different curing times, be stronger or less flexible, or more or less water proof. Let's all hope they didn't just buy the cheapest glue on the market causing a ton of manufacturing problems and/or product failures a year from now.
