I’ve had such a great response to my ATG video that I started thinking about liquid glues.  I have a lot of them that I like and don’t particularly have a favorite.  More importantly, I’ve tried really hard to find and use the fine tip applicators to no avail.  I can’t squeeze the glue hard enough to get it to come out of the tip.  I’ve bought the one that Lindsay uses and the one that Jennifer McGuire recommends and neither of them worked for me.  I’ve taken this as a personal challenge.  I am going to either find a glue that I can get to squeeze through the fine tip or find a fine tip that any glue can squeeze through.  It sounds like it could be easy, but so far, it’s not.

I decided I can’t do this on my own, so put it out to the Splitcoast Stamper community where there are 275,000 members.  Hopefully there is someone that uses the site that has weak hands and has found the holy grail of fine tip applicators.  I’m counting on them to come through for me because left to my own devices, I’ll end up with 20-30 different kinds of wet glue and none that work with the fine tip.  Which leads me to my next dilemma.  Do we really need a fine tip on our wet glue?  I can use regular tips on wet glues as long as the bottle isn’t humongous.  I’m sure it comes in handy on tiny die cuts etc., but maybe we can live without a fine tip.  I’m up in the air about it, but want to be there for the viewers who have asked me about it.  I’m pretty serious about this mission.  Where’s MacGyver when I need him?  All I really need is some Elmer’s Glue, a funnel and a bobby pin and voila, fine tip applicator.  It sounded pretty great for a second there and then reality set in.  I’m no MacGyver.  Geez.
