Last I knew, Lee Valley services their US customers from a mail-order
distribution point (i.e. no retail store) a hop across the border.
I've no idea of the contact information, as it's strangely not in their
catalogues, and perusing through recent issues of Fine Woodworking
doesn't turn up any ads or reviews of their products.  Very peculiar.

I've been considering Lee Valley as a source of hide glue -- does
anybody have any experience with it? They sell a pound of granular glue
for $10.95, and a pound of slower-setting pearl glue for $9.95.  They
also sell a one-quart thermostatically-controlled glue pot, American
made but manufacturer not stated, for $118. How is this for a price?
(All prices quoted are Canadian dollars, worth about 3/4 the USA
variety.)
