P3D Elmer's glue and Spicer mounts

["Harold Baize" <baize@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ken Luker's tips on using Elmer's glue 
are great and very through. I've been gluing 
my Spicers for a few years and I like it, they 
are very solid. 

The one addition I can make to Ken's tips are 
to use Elmer's "School Gel". This is a clear blue 
colored variety of Elmer's that is thicker and less 
runny. It also has a flat broad tip that you 
can use to evenly spread the glue. 

Another variation is to use just a touch of 
glue stick to hold the film chip in place 
of tape. I like to put the slides between the 
pages of a large old book to keep them flat 
until the glue has set.

I've been doing this for a few years and the 
mounts and images look great.
