Ca glue on ribs

[Dean May]

Yes, thin CA. What you see might surprise you. When you apply CA at the top
of the rib it might run all the way through and out the bottom on what looks
like a tight joint. When I see that happen I'll use accelerator to make sure
glue sets up in the void before it all runs out.

 

I've also applied it to bridge joints. Sometimes you'll see the glue suck
right in.

Thanks Dean:

 

Ca glue along the ribs, and around the edge of the soundboard? I never
thought of that. Sounds real. You're using thin, right?

I have used ca thin on about a dozen piano pinblocks, applying around the
pins, all with positive results. I use a tilter.
