CA glue

[J Patrick Draine]

Well, for starters, Ed Dryburgh (http://www.dryburghadhesive.com/)  
introduced the notion of CA glue & piano repair, so I would recommend  
doing business with him.
Otherwise, avoid purchasing at a local hardware store that may have  
the stuff on the shelf for ages.
I get mine at the local Woodcraft Supply shop; Satellite City brand,  
which is what Dryburgh sells.
There are several brands out there. Better to be cautious and pay a  
premium price, than to get bottles of glue that harden or gell  
prematurely, etc.
Oh, very important: you want the thin variety for pinblock work.
And EXCELLENT ventilation (and appropriate gear for eye & nose/lung  
protection is well advised).
