Newton asks: >Upon what data or experience do you base that statement? I used a bottle of CA on several projects several years ago. A plastic clock on the wall, a wooden ruler, a pencil holder cup, etc. About a year ago, the clock fell off the wall. A week later, the handle came off the cup, and about two or three weeks after that, the ruler broke. I don't think CA is all that long term, but what I have seen in blocks is great. I also think that the increased torque in a pinblock comes from increasing the surface area between the pin and the wood more than "swelling" the wood. Regards, Ed Foote
