Hi dfrey
If the product of choice, was shellac and it was discontinued in favor of modern glues, why? Why not continue to use the traditional glues? Or, have traditional glues been completely eclipsed by the modern for good reason?

Hmm, sounds like another good research project. Unless Ashby has already done some research on how they did it in QE-I times......
