Get a supply of thin CA from Ed Dryburg, 1-800-GLUE-ALL, with the long tubes.+AKAAoA- Select the larger tube, remove the cap, cut the tip JUST large enough to force the tube through the hole from the inside of the top and pull out about three to four inches, feed the entire tube into the bottle.+AKA- In order to get the CA out you will have to squeeze the bottle, otherwise it will not come out at all.+AKA- This is good for control of location but not for application of a lot of CA in a short amount of time. Any contamination, finger prints, sweat, oils, moisture, ANYTHING will cause CA to begin to set.+AKA- Care needs to be taken during this set up. Use the same procedure to apply CA to really tight places like bridge pins but use the smaller tube. The tubes can be stretched which reduces the inside diameter of the tube. +AKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKAAoA- Newton > On the block I did in a grand, I had a heck of a time keeping drops from > spilling onto the face of the plate.
