Another nice on, Tim. I didn't know about atuna nut paste before, either.

Thank you Fearn. I am rather pleased with it. Atuna putty is used as a general adhesive, glue, caulk and modeling stubstance. It seem to turn rock hard and have tremendous grab qualities. Why is it not a comercial product? These pictures are of coconut containers from "Art of the Admiralty islands". To stay on like this shows how strong it is. I should think it is used much like tar on canoes?
