I'm ready to make a bunch of glue for you guys but in talking with Zach last week I realize some people will have a preference in container. Personally, I'm not a fan of the nail polish bottle. I feel the hairs in the brush are more likely to pick up bacteria, hold it longer and transfer it better than my washed finger.
Let me know what you prefer so I know how to make up some jars.

Fingers here. It's just as easy and hopefully my hands are sanitary.

Thank you Ray! Very kind of you. A finger bottle is fine with me. I can always use a toothpick if finer control is needed.

If you think about the folks who roll the tobacco...i'm thinking the nail polish bottle wouldn't be the most unsanitary thing to touch my cigar! Are these as simple for you as the finger bottle? I can honestly use either one, if one is easier than another.

the "El Torcedor" glue from BC Specialties comes in the small bottles with a brush but I believe it is less viscous.

Filling the bottle will be a pain, but finding the proper mixture shouldn't be too hard. No big deal Mert.

Based on what I've made so far I think I have enough for everyone in the group for the next 20 years or so. :sifone:
It's just a bitch to make because it's hydrophobic.

Don't mean to threadjack, but this website has good prices on just about any kind of bottle you could ever want:

I checked it out, with shipping the bottles cost more than I can get them for local. Thanks though Gary.

I like the sound of having a brush... This is great Ray. I have a few nice cigars that I hate moving around because they need a dab of glue. Thanks!

I'm waiting to hear back from a few more folks before I get moving. Jamie, Clint (doubt we'll hear from him I'll make it anyhow).
Note: This is NOT pectin! This is what virgins use when rolling Mert's cigars on their thighs. I keep mine in my humidor, it can handle direct light and moderate heat.
Pectin molds too easily and I can detect a citrus taste.
There is NO cost on this, so lets see more names!
