Never knew about hide glue, if the dictionary is any kind of reference to common knowledge of its Era then things surely have changed because I doubt that definition holds much relevancy today. Dictionaries hold history.
Hide glue is still very much in use (use it myself) by restorationists, period woodworkers, bookbinders, chairmakers and folks in the many arts. A common practice is to recycle the glue from antiques, put it in the glue pot and use it again and again.

O and I forgot to mention, Bruno is looking sharp in the kit.
