I'll report how it goes. I think the idea is that you don't any air in the tip. The moisture in the air causes the glue to cure. If the tip is filled with glue and no air, then it'll cure much more slowly. If that's the case, then it seems the best way to store CA glue would be without any air, or as little as possible (at some point the pressure would get so low the glue might boil, which we wouldn't want). You know those things that suck the air out of a wine bottle and cause the wine to stay fresh for much longer? Why not something like that for CA glue? Or we could install a tiny tiny DC system to dehumidify the inside of the bottle. :) Charles Neuman
