Glue, resin and tar are 3 products used to combine materials together. As such, they are useful to build a specific part of a device, ... They should however only be used to combine materials of one specific part, and not to combine parts together.

Some glues can be made DIY:

  • casein glue (milk, vinegar, baking soda)
  • flour + water glue
  • flour + water + sugar glue
  • gelatin + glycerine glue (or "book binding glue")
