"I used Franklin cold hide glue."
Cold hide glue has its place. When you need a long open time, you want a =
reversible glue joint, and you are not worried about the glue =
penetrating the material, cold hide glue can be a great adhesive. Hot =
hide glue, of course, also is wonderful in many applications.

Just curious. Are you talking about the hide glue in the bottle or the =
hide glue in a glue pot? The former I'd never use. The other I use
all the time! :-)=20

So from this one experience I observed that old hide glue that is =
clear may still be good, while cloudy hide glue may not yield a good =
bond. I don't know if that is a definitive relationship, but I do know =
that if I ever see cloudy hide glue, I won't use it.

From the TiteBond web site for cold hide glue: Storage life 12 =
months in tightly closed containers at 75=B0F.
