The CA fumes are bad enough--irritates my eyes, but not my lungs so much. I also don't see any need to use accelerator for a pin block treatment. There are times that I'll used accelerator for other things. Broken hammer shank or head, broken keystick on a cheap piano, etc. And I've had to use it on a few unglued hammer felts which didn't respond well to CA and Titebond used together. Probably some other things, but those are what I can think of right off the top. -- JF -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
