  Opinions will abound And I'm open to them all however ,Yes I've used the 
stuff (cold hide glue)for a long time and observed the stuff after it has 
dried in hot dry weather and it's hard. Those of us who do use it always use 
the stuff in date to be safe. If you ever have tried to get pieces apart 
after they've been glued and  dried thoroughly I think most of the nay sayers 
would think it quite tuff stuff. I don't live in a humid climate or I might 
be concerned.
  Just a thought
