Tip of the Day



Super Duper Glue Scooper

Woodworking and home repairs often leave excess glue on inside corners. Getting to it to remove it can be tough. Glue is easiest to remove while it's still wet, and a damp rag works fine -- unless you're trying to clean an inside corner. Then it's nearly impossible unless you know how to make our famous "super duper glue scooper." Flatten a common drinking straw and use the resulting ?v? end to scoop deep into the gooey glue joint. One or two passes, from end to end, should do the trick. And that's the On The House tip for today.
