I happened across an interesting item at the friendly LHS yesterday. It is Hinge Glue by Pacer (the Zap People). It looks like aliphitic-creamy tan color, and pretty thick. With a pointy nozzle, you can squirt it down into the slot very neatly and wipe away excess with a damp cloth or Q-Tip. It is alleged to adhere well to "most" hinge materials. The flaps I glued with it last night seem solid this morning. Much easier and neater than epoxy. Anyone else tried it? Hoping I didn't pay $2.50 for a tiny bottle of Tite-Bond....

Kelvin,

Yes, I've tried it - or at least tried to try it. Don't remember where/when I bought it but when I went to use it - it was separated inside the bottle. Couldn't shake it up or even stick something down inside to stir it around.

Bummer.

You coming up to the Bentfield contest in Aug? That'll be my first contest in about 10 years. Doubt if I'll have my Prowler done but should drag out the Twister and UKey 15.

Yep, should be there, Steve. If I can get time to practice any at all, I might even fly! Just got a Pathfinder finished in time for the weather to go to pot, as you mentioned. And there is always the Ukey.

yes. See my post in CONFERENCES under "glues". To keep stuf from going bad I store it upside down. Keeps the air from getting in I guess!
