CA glue does work on metal. On the pens I make the copper sleeve is CA'd to the wooden barrel and holds permanently.

I have been lead to believe that CA glue will not work on metal and that is why CA glue works on tuning pins in the pin block. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I might make this fit tighter, so the damper does not swivel on the wire. Thanks, William PIANO BOUTIQUE William Benjamin The tuner alone, Preserves the tone.
