Sometimes I miss the old wood glue that took forever to dry. Now everything sets in minutes.

What do you miss about the slower set time? That extra window used to let you fix a bad clamp or adjust alignment. Fast glue now feels like it forces you to get everything perfect on the first try.

Oh wow, I always thought faster glue was better cause it saved time. But your point about fixing mistakes makes total sense. Now I see why slower set time is actually useful.

Yeah, saw something in a woodworking mag about this. They were talking about old school hide glue, where you could literally reheat a joint to fix it. Modern fast glue doesn't give you that working time, which is rough if a clamp slips.
