Default RE: Headaches with Glue

I took the advice of campgems,.. I bought new paper plates, wax free type. I did tests today with 15 min- 30 min and 60 min with different glues. The hobby shop glue set up hard as a rock in the required time. The Ace Hardware Glue failed in set up time, and after 6 hours, the 60 Min glue is still tacky. So those will go back to Ace Hardware. Ace's 5 Minute and 15 min, worked ok. The tightbond epoxy set up after an extra hour . I was mixing these glues in Paper plates and it improved 98%. , the results were
not scientific, just at house temp. around 68-70 degrees. So I guess I'll be getting rid of plastic wrapping containers now. Other plastic may be ok, but I'll stay with what works for now.
