Shoutout to the $40 'quick-dry' glue that ruined a whole signature block
It took a full week to set and warped the paper... anyone know a better adhesive for text blocks?

Ever try PVA bookbinding glue? I switched to that after a similar mess and it dries way faster without warping anything.

Oh good call on PVA! It's definitely better than basic white glue. Just a heads up though, the really cheap craft PVA can still warp thin paper if you use too much. I look for the acid-free kind labeled "bookbinding" or "conservation" grade.

Yeah the cheap stuff is basically watered down. I keep a small bottle of the good bookbinding PVA for projects like that, makes a huge difference.
