I want a * low priced* *' waterproof ' glue to glue some wood together out

I went to Wickes and bought a tub of white PVA ' Waterproof ' glue. *Gluing
some chopsticks together overnight and then soaking them in water for an

robbed, and that could not really be called waterproof or am I asking for

Any suggestions on a *low priced* waterproof glue please? * Years ago in the
woodworking class at school we used to have pots of glue (made I think from
horses hooves or something similar) that we used to heat over boiling water
to get it to be soft enough to use.

Is it still possible to get this type of glue? *It must have been cheap for
our school to use it, but I have no idea if it's waterproof of not. *Any
suggestions please ? *Thanks.

Waterproof glue is not ment to be soaked in water but only to resist
water and dampness. You might try gorilla glue, it is a expanding
type glue ment for outdoors, it may solve your problem without going
to a epoxy. I have an articule on outdoor glues on my web site under
outdoor projects.. tips..
