This to that

How many times have you been stumped on how to glue one thing to another? Glass to plastic, say, or wood to rubber. And the next thing you know you’re Superglue-ing your thumb to your ass. Fortunately, there’s Thistothat.com, the impartial Web site where you pull down two menus, click “Let’s Glue” and get product suggestions and even safety tips, such as don’t mix Styrofoam and solvents or you’ll get toxic fumes. The people at Thistothat.com, who conduct extensive testing, work under the “bondage” philosophy that “the adhesive must fit the adherend.” (Kinda Zen, eh?). Also check out the glue of the month (a bit heavy on the epoxy lately), adhesive trivia and special projects such as reattaching your rearview mirror.
