What I want my hide glue to do is completely infiltrate all the fibres of my sinew without the overloading of glue.Creating a matrix layer when dried that you can't even hardly see the sinew strands.That squeeging process dipping the pre soaked sinew into the hide glue can take practice to get it right for the right amount of glue.You'll know when you tiller it.That's why I like my sinew finer and more fluffy in the beginning.Each to his own I say.
Pat's method of wrapping and heating for a nice finish I feel is an efficient way to accomplish this if the sinew is harder and thicker,and will create that matrix looking effect too.
