In Response To: Leather Top Desk -- which glue to use? (Maurine)

The best glue is premixed vinyl wallpaper paste. It gets a good grip and the long open time gives you time to put the leather in properly or to remove and relay it if you have to. when you are installing the leather put paste on the wood only, lay the leather starting in the middle and work towards the edges pressing out any air bubbles as you go. Once the leather is down I talke a 6" wood block that has had all the edges rounded and press the leather down for a good bond.
