This mod adds a few simple, reality-based adhesive crafting recipes to the cooking station, allowing you to craft Hide Glue, Bone Glue, and Rubber Cement.  The FOMOD installer offers a single file in ESP or ESL format, with options to accomodate FallUIValdacil's, VIS-G, Bhaal's, or Vanilla sorting.  If you use Ruddy88's Simple Sorter, install the vanilla option and then run Ruddy88's script.

I made this mod for myself, really, as I was starting a new game and was frustrated at the scarcity of adhesive around Sanctuary Hills.  Adhesive is actually one material that's been crafted in the real world for millennia.  Bone and hide were used to make animal-based glue in ancient Egypt, and natural rubber has been turned into an adhesive for at least a century.  It's hard to believe those processes can't be reproduced post-apocalypse, leaving us scrounging for 200-year old duct tape and Wonder glue.

I looked on the Nexus for mods to fill this gap, and I found kaseru's Craftable Adhesivesplokijuh34's Craftable Animal Glue - Adhesive Recipes, and some others.  They're fine, but I just wasn't satisfied with them.  I wanted something simple, neatly packaged, that would be compatible with sorting mods.  So I made my own mod, and just for kicks I decided to publish a few variations and throw it in a FOMOD for you.  So here you go.  Enjoy.

This mod is really very simple.  It adds exactly three recipes to the Utility menu at the cooking station, all based on real-life ingredients to make glue:
- Bone Glue requires 1 Acid, 4 Bone, and 4 Purified or Dirty Water.
- Hide Glue requires 1 Acid, 4 Leather, and 4 Purified or Dirty Water.
- Rubber Cement requires 3 Acid, 1 Antiseptic, and 5 Rubber.
Bone Glue, Hide Glue, and Rubber Cement all yield 5 Adhesive when scrapped.

Download and install with Vortex or MO2.  This mod does not require any DLC or other mods.  It is compatible with the sorting mods listed above, and if you choose to install one of those variants you will need the mods they require.
