Will it work as a glue for backings? Especially sinew...

     It is a major ingredient in some wood glues.

If I have milk spoil I will try it on spoiled milk also. Be interesting to see if it still works then. That way spoiled milk doesn't get wasted.

Slingshot ammo? Bullets? Any black powder guys wanna give it a try? What about mixing with saw dust as a knot and bug hole filler? If that works, what about making it fiber reinforced for a composite bow belly? In the video it fractured just like epoxy resin. Maybe mix it with ground dust and flakes of gemstones for inlays? Need to find out how waterproof it is

Casien isn't knappable in my experiance.
Sling bullets made from it perform about the same as clay.
it is pretty much waterproof if mixed with a SMALL amount of lime.
As is, its pretty waterproof.
Casien would perform like most other non- collegen based glues on sinew, except I think it is signifigantly more brittle.
TB2 will outperform it for bond strength.

White glue was originally casine glue, made with milk solids.

Traditional milk paint also relies on casein as its binder.
