Michael,

Yes the nozzle is a pain in the butt! However, I've devised a way of =
keeping
it working. (it's still the pits if you are trying to "force" some glue =
into
a small crack! My answer to that problem, is to transfer some to a =
cheapie
Elmers glue bottle. the little one with the screw nozzle.)

Oh, I digress. The method I have is: A piece of scrap wood with a 1/2" =
hole
drilled in it. The nozzle fits snuggly into the hole, thus keeping the =
glue
"at the tip". When applying the glue, I have a wet rag setting in a =
plastic
lid, on the bench and I close the tip by pushing down on the rag and =
wiping.
This keeps the glue tip clear, thus avoiding the "breaking" problem!<G>

Hello Joe

Some little girl sat on my boys' violin and smashed it to bits. I took =
the
bits home in a shopping bag. A few months later I thought I'd use my =
newly
acquired Tite Bond to stick it together. He now prefers it to a =
replacement
violin which I bought for a couple of 100 =A3 or more. Now that's Tite =
Bond
for you - but it hasn't a Mk 1, or 2, or 3, it's called Original Wood =
Glue
and comes in a 8fl. oz plastic bottle with a very questionable nozzle =
(which
I managed to pull off and break. Darn it!)

Regards

Michael G.(UK)

After several months of using TiteBond III, I'm happy to report that it =
is
now my glue of choice on those repairs that I don't/expect to ever have =
to
take apart!=20

Some of the properties I like: 1. It doesn't stain my fingers like =
TiteBond
II. 2. It has a longer "working time" than TiteBond II. 3. It doesn't =
clog
up sanding devices as badly as either TiteBond or TiteBond II. 4. It =
dries
to a color that is less conspicuous. (Soundboard glue-up comes to mind.) =
5.
It is really strong!

The only down-side that I've found, is that it is best to let it cure a =
full
24-36 hours before attempting to put major stress on the joint, such as
planing, etc.

For those of you who haven't tried it, I do recommend it.

Best Regards,
