Totally right, but one thing I learned recently - hide glue isn't that much more expensive than the same manufacturers' PVA glues.
(For folks who aren't familiar, though, animal glues aren't really substitutable for things like plywood; the ability to undo a hide glue joint is valuable in furnituremaking but not in plywood composition.)

- eropple 5y agoThat makes sense. You're talking about a lot of glue for one panel, though, and at that point I would be worried about costing (and still more worried about delamination than with PVA). Plywood is weird when you think about it.
