Elmer's Super Glue: amzn.to/3la0Nxi
Gorilla: amzn.to/2EhgYbn
Krazy Glue: amzn.to/32biGmA
Loctite: amzn.to/2EuGV6R
Scotch: amzn.to/2Ehq8Vh
Super Glue: amzn.to/2ErhvqS
We use Loctite 404 at work, so I'd love to see how that compared to the Loctite you tested.
Hey project farm love the videos you post and the testing you do.
A cool video idea I have is Bungie cords.
- hook strength / hook types.
- stretching
- weathering
- flat strap vs cord
- solid rubber vs fabric over elastic.
- and of course cheapest to most expensive brand.
Q bond glue
Bob Smith superglue
I didn't see LePage in the testing. Perhaps LePage is more popular in Canada. The packaging looks / reads to be very similar to Loctite.
Four years later, you're still delivering fair and creative testing of products. Thank you for what you do, Todd. Your channel is truly a service to America's buying public.
Thanks and you are welcome!
EU as well
We got Amazon too :)
BW Bacon Well said!
Why do ya always suck pole
I’d say gorilla glue it’s especially good for hair
TOO BAD THERE WERE NO HAIR TESTS WOULDA WON HANDS DOWN
😂😂😂
MAN I CAME HERE TO SAY THIS! BAHAHAHA 🤣
You just need to be absolutely certain that's a hairstyle you want to keep for a very long time.
Too soon....
Store your super glues in the fridge. They'll keep much longer. Also know that by applying them cold, the working time before they bond increases, so that can be an advantage depending on what you're doing. Otherwise let it acclimate to room temp first.
Thank you!
I'd add that it's a really good idea to try to squeeze out as much air as you can as you put the cap on. Between that and the fridge, there's no reason you can't get many months if not a year out of a thing of super glue, if you don't find you use it that much.
Just need to eliminate moisture. Just keep all the silicate bags from products and put em in the jar with glue tubes.
@@inq752isn't it air that technically ruins super glue?
That can a disadvantage you meant to say right.
I've had more issues with glue being dried out and unusable when needed after sitting on the shelf for several weeks (or months) after being opened and used only one time. The only glue that passed that test was Locktite. That bottle is about a year old and is still liquid and in good usable condition when I had need for it recently.
Thanks for sharing.
Trying to cap and save a tube of glue is a lost cause. You might as well count on one use or application per tube.
I am just studying this problem, apparently you should store it in the freezer in a plastic baggy to prevent air getting to it.
I'll try buying Loctite next time just based on that report. Superglue formulations must have changed over the years. I can remember being able to keep it around for quite some time at room temperature provided it was sealed up well. Now, it's use one drop and it's guaranteed useless next time you need it.
I have bottle of locktite that has survived for several years now. I store it standing up in a drawer where it's dry and room temperature. Very impressed that it is still usable.
You do the fairest most honest testing I’ve seen, great stuff.
Thanks so much!
It's because he keeps bias out of it. If he finds a product that is better than the one he usually uses he's probably like dang! I'll use that now
I’m just addicted to this guy’s videos; all these tests involve products that I use.
He does come across as honest and I'm really impressed with how he creates really logical tests for a variety of tools/products etc.
But we really don't know if he is accepting cash/donations/equipment for giving favourable reviews.
It wouldn't be that hard to get away with, but in saying that I don't think he is, but a healthy dose of skepticism is important.
Switched to Loctite because of this video. Cap comes off everytime and I can actually use the whole bottle.
Nice! Great product. Thank you
I used the actual super glue brand. I've had bad luck with the Loctite brand getting stuck in the cap.
Me too, loctite aswell as loctite x8, husqvarna trimmer line, LLP tape and frogtape.
Thanks Project farm...
Between Loctite and Gorilla glue, I'd say Gorilla glue has less trouble with the cap being glued on. Loctite always end up being glued when the bottle is halfway empty. I still manage to take it off by flexing it and prying it off with a flathead screwdriver, but it's sure annoying. Always wipe off the glue on the tip before putting the cap back.
Vital Information it is quite amazing that the dirt cheap superglue is actually very good
I know this video is four years old…. And it’s not the first time I comment. I needed super glue….. I went straight to you.
You are exceptional in your tests . Really you are amazing. You must be an engineer born with an amazing intelligence.
I love your channel. Thank you for your in-depth reviews . Cheers from Quebec, Canada.
Thanks so much!
Si vous plait SHUT UP
Your comparative product tests are great! Thanks for doing them. They save your viewers the guesswork of selecting the best product for individual applications, You're literally saving thousands of viewers the frustrations and money wasted on purchasing garbage.
I especially appreciate the lengths you go to ensure consistency in your various testing procedures.
You've just earned yourself another sub. 😎
Suggested sequel, if I may: Which glues are most resistant to chemical cleaners like water, dish soap, oil, alcohol, acetone, etc.
You are welcome! Thanks for watching and subscribing! Thanks for the suggestion.
My dad bought me Loctite when I was a young kid for my models because of how fast it dries and the strength. I also learned it bonds skin very well.
lol. Yes, it does work very well on skin.
Yeah, i once accidentally super glued my fingers together, but i had researched years before what to do if ever that happens.. 40°C (104°F) degrees heat would loosen it's strength, so i boiled water and kept dipping my fingers in and out because i can't resist the heat, and eventually my fingers were free.
Slap some on your lips
Last night at a science thing at my school and I accidentally super glued my finger to a piece of balsa wood
According to its creator, super glue was used to temporarily close wounds in the Vietnam war, while the injured were being transported to hospitals for stitches.
This is how reviews are done for the actual people who would perform these tasks. No BS, just straight up real world application testing. This is literally where I go first for product reviews and he always has a vid made for what I want to know. Well done.
Thanks so much!
Hello. 👋🙂
Everytime I need to add stuff in my workshop I'm passing by this channel. 😎
These days for me, it's a let down when I need to buy something and there's no Project Farm video to help sort the good stuff from the fluff. The world could use 12 more channels like this. Sponsorship ALWAYS blurs the lines. Support our hero!
Great video. I'm an artist working making sculptures out of a wide variety of materials (e.g. bone, metal, wood, ceramic, plastic, etc.), and I've found that Loctite Gel Control super glue to be the best for the diverse materials I use. E6000 is another favorite among artists, but its drying time is significantly longer, so I stick with Loctite for most small things.
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
I work in trades and that is also the exact same super glue I use. Amazing control & great adhesion, never have to worry about it drying. Might be pricy but worth it imo for a better finished product and for it to be working when you need it
I was headed to Lowe's later on today, with glue on my shopping list. After watching this video, Loctite will be the one that I will use. Thanks
I can vouch for Loctite, theres still a chunk of skin missing from one of my fingers 20 years later.
Wow! Thank you
love your humor
As funny as this is I have used loctite super glue on my hands before and have yet to have injred myself pulling it off.
@@garethbaus5471 They had to nerf all super-glues about 12 years ago because of people like Mr Huff'n'Puff
@@garethbaus5471 You can WD40
Alright... so I've watched nearly all your videos and I have to say, as someone who works for Intertek ETL testing in Plano, TX... your testing is 10x better than anything we do in our labs. Rules and regulations hamstring us from giving honest opinions outside of an engineering spec. Your testing and input have been invaluable for many people, I'm sure. Just wanted to say thanks. Wish you had some certification sticker we could toss on items that pass your review. Consumers would all win. Just an idea :)
Thanks for the suggestion. Thanks for watching!
Project Farm tested and approved product. I love it!
Please register "Project Farm" as a Trade Mark to be used in commerce as " Rated Number One on Project Farm".
I do a lot of arrow fletching. Lock tite seems to work the best for me. It's even better than many of the expensive fletching glues on the market. Good prep is a must.
You are welcome! Thanks for the suggestions.
The amount of thought and prep you put into these tests is amazing. And the video work and music is top notch. Thank you.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Your methodology for testing is getting better all the time. Most folk who aren't scientist don't realize that setting up the parameter and determining variables takes longer than testing usually does. Your no nonsense approach is golden with simple readable results. Plus we get to evaluate the results. Perfect! Many thanks.
Thank you very much!
#SuperJamster1 Fully agree
Would be nice if he didn't use imperial though...
it would be nice if there was only one single standard of measurement and they stuck with it... but that will never happen, because they would only sell 1/2 as many tools.
That's metric, america just won't let go of imperial though...
Loctite seems to be the best bang for the buck. It won the pipe test and tensile test and was the cheapest cost.
Loctite makes a great super glue for sure.
I would says Krazy glue, you can buy it at the dollar store for $1
Caleb Turner Month late but krazy is good for only 1$
Absolutely! Loctite is the best; also best value.
Really?
In the reef tank hobby we often use super glue to attach coral to rock and cement plugs and other stuff. Many times we put a big glob of super glue then attach the coral/object then pour baking soda on top to make it set super fast. It's supposed to make it a lot stronger too. Maybe something to consider if another super glue video is done. I don't know if it's relevant lol
Thanks for the feedback.
I love the effort you go to with all these videos to try and be as fair, equal and scientific as possible.
Thanks again for another amazing video!
You are welcome!
You deserve every cent you make and more!...So great to see the dedication and detail you put in.
Thank you so much 😀
As numerous others have stated, I too found your test preparation, execution and presentation absolutely outstanding!!! Based on your findings, I created a grid and averaged the results. Overall, after factoring in the cost per gram, Loctite appears to edge out the other brands.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you for doing this, Greg. We all know the intense work that it takes in designing, setting up, filming, and concluding analyses of these products; including the presentation work with the graphs and charts. Therefore, having someone helping in creating comparative grids to report the findings is a great way to help Project Farm in his endeavor to keep unbiased testing alive. Glad to see you both working as a team like that.
My conclusion from this testing is that there is no single best super glue. It depends on the application.
@@risajajr My conclusion is that each test needed a sample size of more than 1 per adhesive, tbh. Maybe it'll get revisited? The sample size was a big problem but the methodology was great, I thought.
Thank you, it seems PF adopted this approach and I for one find it very helpful. So thank you!
I've been repairing broken plastic toys for years as a hobby. I've always used Loctite superglue just because it was what was on the shelves. People told me Gorilla glue was better, so I tried that for a while, but realized it actually wasn't as good as the Loctite. Now I see, thanks to your testing, that my cheap Loctite glue was the best for what I was using it for all along!
You are welcome!
Same here. Just tried using Gorilla super glue gel and it was terrible.
Your face is long all along
Always appreciate your reviews and tests.
Thanks!
Don't often comment on these, but watch everything from this channel, and these do give us a better idea of what brands are worth buying, and say Thanks for doing them for us.
Thank you for taking the time to comment!
Project Farm
Whenever you are doing a comparison of product's it would be nice to see a summary at the end of your video.
Great recommendation. I'll do better on this.
Thank you kind sir.
@@ProjectFarm I loved the testing methods you used.
@@ProjectFarm could you display all the charts at the end.
" IN MY HUMBLE OPINION "Can never be sued for defamation because this is just testing using common tools for the consumer to use and test for yourself. Corporation's are not people,has the world gone crazy ....Glue you make the call?
These videos are not only entertainment for me but also serve as a database of info before I start projects or buy products. I love this channel
Thanks!
Absolutely love your unbiased content...keep em coming! I've thumbed up and have recommended just about every video (to prove a point to people haha). Only recommendation or critique I have, as a huge fan, is during your final conclusion, line the products up from best performing to least. I believe you've done this in a few videos and helps acknowledge (highlight) top brands 👍
Thanks, will do!
I'm a retired H/D mechanic and machinist , loctite has been the trusted name in the industry for years, most the others are just a big advertising budget.
It's a great product!
I too am a retired machinist and Loctite was always our go to used a lot of bearing mount.
I'm a carpenter / general contractor and I've always trusted the Loctite brand I'm also no mechanic but I've always worked on my own vehicles and trucks and equipment. I would have to say though some of their newer products that they put their name on are surprising like their power grab cock the shit is junk I cannot even believe they would put their name on that shit so even though I do trust their brand I'm very skeptical of these days
Yep, as an appliance repair tech we use it in our industry for use with refrigeration. The Lokring tool, which uses crimp style connectors using loctite is taking place of torch brazing for sealed systems because of new butane Refrigerants the industry is switching to. Cant use torches with flammable refrigerant.
Robert Salmon I put that shit on everything
A majority of these companies must hate you. *I love it.*
Yea they hired me to hit him but I was like no way he is cool go f yourselves and don't let me catch you doing this again or you will pushing up daisies.
If they put out great products they wouldn't have to worry...
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!

Hi Project Farm, also as stated by "Computerman 21", I really appreciate not only your scientific method approach when testing various products but also your choice of "practical testing parameters" i.e. you use test methodology that matters to users like us (or most of us). As an engineer by trade, I started using your results (and testing philosophy) with my students to help them develop practical applications (in the labs) of all the engineering theory that they have to learn in college. You are a talented teacher (and you should teach); I am very impressed and admire your dedication to "finding the truth", this is what science is all about. Thank you again, Ciao, L (Pointue Farms Bioengineering).
Thank you very much for the positive comments! It means a lot receive such positive comments and motivates me to keep making videos comparing products. Thanks again!
You are welcome, that is the least we can do as you are investing a lot of creativity, ingenuity and time designing your tests - have a nice Labor Day weekend, thank you again, Ciao, L
Lancelot, you may be an engineer by trade (been there long enough so got the title), but not by education. There is no sound science behind using a sample size of 1 for anything. You are making real engineers look bad.
Ram Ram Where do you see a sample size of one?
@@garysarratt1 the pvc test
best channel on UA-cam, why are these videos so freaking satisfying?! lol
Thank you!
You are on the right track, my friend! Your videos are entertaining the way the old mythbusters used to be, before it became pointless to watch them.
Keep up the good work!
Cesar Perez Right. I hate to say it but less and less producers on UA-cam make proper good content like this channel. He well deserves my sub, likes and views!
Cliff they are satisfying to me too! Glad to know I'm not the only one that likes to masturbate to stuff like this.
Yeah man, great testing vid with very interesting results. Have to say loctite wone, even with a straight average that last pic score. Is just to much of a victory. With good showings in all other tests.
Again you put so much of your time on these projects! I do think your AWESOME! THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORT AND TIME!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Thank you for these tests. You don't know how much I appreciate them!
You are welcome!
Which super glue works best as motor oil!
LOL! Thank you for this recommendation!
Sounds like an expensive test but it needs to be done. for science!
😂
Hotrods Garage as insane as this idea is i wanna see that too
who'll foot the bill, that shit is damned expensive!
Really impressed by loctite on plastic
It's amazing on plastic!
Except that nobody uses superglue (of any brand) when working on their sprinkler system.
How will it work on a "rearview mirror" on windshield glass?
i know by experience that locktite(my go to brand) doesnt work on steel to glass on a mirror.i have also tried another brand at the time and didnt work for long either.i am a ford tech of 20 years and just decided to try it instead of the made for it regular glue.my advice,regular glue wins.my 2 cents
Thanks rooster. All "rear view" mirror glues eventually fail. Just tying to figure out the best. Also if I use a plastic nub instead of a metal nub, it may hold longer with a certain type of glue ( plastic on glass), until the plastic nub breaks...
Thanks. I appreciate the honesty and transparency of your testing.
You are welcome!
Another thing about superglue is that some brands lose their strength very quickly over time. Something that would be very difficult to test. But using superglue since it first came out, it is something I've noticed.
Thanks for the feedback.
So..
Loctite for plastics
Elmer's for metal
Mostly... should be noted that it really depends on the kind of force expected for the metal to endure... As he showed there was a different winner in each of the different metal tests...
Scotch worked better for metal
Montage Central Only in 1 of the tests.
My luck and experience is that none of the super glues work on anything I wish to stick together. They only work on gluing my fingers together (accidentally). I guess that's how "medical" super glues were discovered!
If you sprinkle baking powder on super glue, it's strength increase by up to 5 times. Not joking
I love the fact that this guy is doing everything he can to make this test as equal as possible,even changing out gloves when going from one super glue to the other,nice work man,keep it up.👍
Thank you very much!
Wow...so much patience and details....great job !!! Thanks.
You are welcome!
I always learn from watching your videos. You are a great source of information for us do it yourself people. Thanks!!
Some interesting methodologies. Loc-tite specifically makes some very specific products that are meant to bond different types of materials together; ie plastic to metal, metal to metal, etc. It would be interesting to see if these products have true advantages over the basic 'super glue'. Thanks as always for all of your work. It is nice to watch your channel go from clearing brush to all of this. Congrats.
Thank you for this recommendation!
It's wild how all over the map these results are!
I agree. Loctite seemed to be the best overall.
oh I am sold on loctite for sure! I have always used it for plastic stuff and after seeing this I will never switch products EVER!
The results certainly are all over the place. From a scientific standpoint I am skeptical. I think for tests like these, more samples are very necessary.
agreed, same with the prices for the stuff! however..loctite has always been my go to...or gorilla just personal prefrence
The place I used to work we used quite a lot of theese CA glues, we mostly used different types of loctite 401, 406, 435 some 3M branded stuff and few other, but there were just theese 1 part out of 50 that failed for no obvious reason. So if you only make 1 test for each glue it might just be the one that failed. So I just say there are some variables in gluing that sometimes the glue fails.
I really do appreciate all the time and effort you do in all the videos you do. They are very helpful and extremely informative. Thanks so much👍
You are welcome! Glad to hear!
Your use of the scientific method is great
Thank you!
Apart from the golden rule of repeatability
RumpelForeskin Why do you say that? He is stating all relevant parameters, so one could repeat all the tests?
Yes, but the results aren't valid unless you can show they're reliable by repeating the test
Computerman 21 i came here to see which one to sniff. Im dissapointed
The amount of work you need to do for all these reviews is insane.
Thanks!

Wow that loctite.
It's a great product!

Project Farm *My pleasure. Posting something like that at the end ould save you from having to point out which product did the best, and you could leave it up to the viewer to decide for themselves which one came out on top, or in thus case which one worked best for a specific application. Some might one that holds plastic better, while others might be more interested in metal.* *Putting a spreadsheet at the End of the video showing how each product did side by side for each application that you tested for would be a big help to us flunkies out here in InternetLand...🤔🤔😩*

As usual, a great video. I will give you a quick anecdote: When I was about 11 years old I lived in Illinois. My father used to take me to a small diner that looked like a railroad car. The food was always excellent. Best bacon cheeseburgers in the mid west!! One day our usual waitress was not there. The woman that took her place was LOUSY at service. My dad was always a very good tipper. At that time he was a vice president for Caterpillar tractor company. Since the service was so bad, he took a quarter out, and also a small tube. He put a small amount on the quarter, pressed it on the table and sat his coffee cup on it. (To give it heat he said.) We then left. Roughly 9 months later, we went back. The quarter was still there. They had tried to get it off, no luck. When I got older, I left Illinois and moved to Kentucky. I went home to visit my dad, and he suggested we go to the diner as the city was going to tear it down in a month or so for more parking space. I agreed. 22 years later, THAT QUARTER WAS STILL THERE!!! They gouged the hell out of that table trying to get it off. No luck at all. One of my favorite memories growing up. Best wishes.
Thanks! Thanks for sharing! That's quite a memory!
1 drop can lift a ton but can't even hold my glasses together..ok👍

@@georgebuck2269 A drop of JB weld would work aswell, and may even be far stronger. JB Weld is miraculously strong for some applications.
Glasses get oil from your skin on them, did you wash them with detergent and dry them before gluing?

Thanks for watching.
Great Channel. Always look at his videos before I buy.
Video Ideas!
1) Spray adhesives including basting spray
2) Mounting adhesives, tape and putty
3) Strapping tape. And then best strapping tape vs best duct tape
Numbers 1 and 2 might be harder to do since there are lots of different types of material that can be used.
Seriously impressed with each test you used. Was a cabinet maker for close to 35 years. So, maybe add wood for testing. Thanks so much for this type of video!
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for the suggestion.
This channel is what UA-cam should be. Well done.
Thank you!
You: "Should these plastic pipes be welded together?"
Loctite: "Hold my Beer"
if a plumber rocked up at your place, ready to fix your leaking pipes with loctite, you'd say?
'hold my beer, I'll call your ambulance'
Wouldn’t that be an bad idea because the stuff would be in the water or what ever in it
Love your videos they are extremely informative thanks
Thanks for ALL your un-sponsored testing!!! I truly believe it is a community service! The slow motion video and background music were great on this video.
Thanks!
I’ve always been a fan of Gorilla glue. But after seeing this video, I’m going to have to get a bottle of Loctite! Very impressed.
Thank you!
I also switched from Gorilla to Loctite after this video
Metal to metal, loctite. Metal to wood, gorilla.
I think the winner it's clearly Loctite that's the one I use stuff to bonds in seconds. Are use it on nylon mostly for professional radio control trucks
Traxxas xmaxx . As usual Todd excellent editing time lapse videos and good music thank you for your time.

I watch all your stuff, it’s fun to see how much more technical in your testing procedures you have become.
Thank you!
Caution when buying "The Original" Super Glue: It gets hard inside the sealed tube!! I thought I was being frugal and purchased a 12 pack when it was on sale. After about a year, I pulled out one to use it and it was hard. "Pin hole in the tube, maybe manufacturing defect" I thought. I checked the rest of them, and they were all hard. I checked each tube, and there were actually two different lot numbers mixed in the multi-pack, so no manufacturing defect. I contacted SuperGlue and they told me that they only warranty the glue for 1 year from date of manufacture. Live and learn. I went a bought some Loctite. At least I know that it's not going to get hard in the tube before I even open it!
All CA glue has a shelf life. There's one made by Titebond that supposedly has an extended storage life. You can store any CA glue in your freezer to extend its storage life. You need to allow the glue to warm up to room temperature before you use it. Can't put it back into the freezer either.
Locite cures in the absence of air and bottle cycles air through it even with it on, so even though they have they a self life of a year, they'll still be good to go for a very long time. Loctite is def the way to go
Jesus Jim you must have a lot of time on your hands , get a hobby
Gorilla Glue is very similar, they could reseal and create a vacuum at the same time but, that would probably cut into their sales that is why I no longer buy the large size, but the smallest size available. Loctite and 3M set the standards for other companies to follow!
Planned obsolescence.😒
How about the best wood glue ( I use it more too)
Thank you for this recommendation!
Project Farm please do this
Mower Man gx85 good call
Yassss
I agree. Wood glue would be cool. Test it on a hard wood like oak.
I sure hope that these test videos are lucrative for you because you sure put a lot of work into these things. As one commenter said they should put the results of your testing on every package of products tested. Thanks for all the work.
You are welcome!
WHY DON'T YOU DO A BEST 'GLASS CLEANER' TEST ? would love to see that.
Thanks for the suggestion.
I think your mixed results on the metal are indicative of small sample size. As you said, surface prep is everything, and though you did a good job of controlling it there is always an element of randomness to adhesive strength testing that calls for a high sample size. You will never know what might have been an outlier until you run the test multiple times. In the case of the Loctite on plastic that big of a difference might be a pretty clear indication but it would be worth running that one sample again just to verify it is always that strong.
Great point and thank you
Sam .. Exactly! ..and better said than I would have. These tests seem well done with a "fun" spirit to them, … so maybe asking a semi-amateur "consumer reports" guy to do a LOT of "lab work" would feel tedious, but even a sample size of 3 for each example would improve result values..
If you have a problem with how thorough he is, try watching hobby ladies do reviews on their craft products. 20 minutes later you still have no idea, and all the ladies in the comments just tell you to buy the most expensive one and stop asking questions. For a free view, this is more than I expect.

Pretty sure there are "hobby ladies" that know well their tools.
True, although these are are DIY kind of scientific tests, neither completely amateur nor laboratory-level. Otherwise, it's possible that they wouldn't have become popular (if they were "too sophisticated")...
Great video, awesome to see how well your videos have evolved, this is 4 years old now. Very impressive!
Thanks!
Absolutely love this comparison videos.

@@ProjectFarm Do some companies make changes to their products after being tested by Project Farm?
Amazing video! I enjoyed watching very much
This guy is the best. Full of integrity and studious testing methods.
Thansk!
i love that you respond to your fans, shows that u really care about the community of people who follow you
Thank you
I needed to find a different super glue for a project I was working on and instantly thought of you 😎 Knowing you'd have a super helpful testing video I could watch 👍 thanks for all your time, dedication and bringing valuable content to UA-cam ▶️
Thanks for the video idea.
I'll put this response in the fail bin.
I'm obsessed with your content! You are the Man!
Thanks!
I love your channel, and it is doing great! I hope your doing great! Thank you so much from the Netherlands 😃👍🏻
This is probably my 3rd or forth time watching this video. Ive seen them all so many times and every time I learn something new! Thank you for everything you do! Happy Halloween!!
Thanks so much!
@Project Farm. Love the editing, love the thoughts and planning you put into each tests, love the explanations before, during and after each test.
I hope no toes or feet were harmed during this testing.
Hope you and your family stay safe and healthy.
Thank You! We are safe and healthy and wish the same for you!
As someone who grew up using Elmers in school and having my projects fall apart when I went to hand them in, these tests are really something to see!
Thanks for the feedback.
Great work! Glad that you found it fun. I rely on your testing.
Thanks!
I use Loctite for assembling Warhammer 40k models, and it's the one that consistently fails to fail. All the others have occasionally had joints fail in hinky ways.
It's a great product!
Your videos have come a long way since this one was made. I’d like to see you revisit this but with new tests and averages of say 5 or 10 samples for each type of test. Great videos! Keep up the great work!
I agree I have used superglues for a long time and the three things I am certain of are:
(1) they all work very well to glue your fingers together
(2) you only get one use out of each container because they glue the cap on and dry out after opening and
(3) They are very inconsistent. As soon as you find one that works great for a particular purpose it breaks immediately the next time you use it for that purpose.
I was here to say the same thing. Not only has his testing methods improved, but so has the pacing of the videos. I also think revisiting these old topics with the new skill is a great idea
I don't think he should come back to this one. This is probably one of the most pointless videos he has made. Each of these brands have about 10 different types of ca glues that they produce, and they're all useful for varying things. Understanding how the glue works and what you're trying to accomplish is the only thing that matters when it comes to ca glue. The ingredients are extremely simple and written in the product description, so brand really doesn't have a huge influence on how the glue behaves.
It's like doing a comparison video of different brands of ibuprofen.
