Random Quick Tip!

Easy Does It Gluing
If you use glue in your projects and you need just to place a tiny dab. Use a scrap piece of paper and put a dab of glue on the paper. Then use a toothpick to apply the glue by dipping it in the glue on the paper. That way you will get better control of how much you are actually applying.
