Subject: [Puptcrit] Tech: Gelatin glue


Hi all.
I was wondering if anybody out there tried gelatin glue,
specifically for paper mache projects, or similar application (bookbinding 
perhaps?).

Is it possible to use that kind of glue without heating?
Or if it has to be heated, does it smell bad?

I was going to try food-grade gelatin (one brand is Knox).
Since it comes from the same ingredients as "animal hide glue", which is 
supposed to smell bad, I'm a bit worried.

I love my work!
So I'd rather use ingredients and techniques that don't disgust me, thank 
you very much!
