Glue & Plastic Revisited

Thanks to all who responded with their choice of adhesive for plastic
sharps.  A special thanks to Wim who uses a different glue for sharps
and flats. :-)

The results:
Titebond - 4.5
Contact cement - 1.5
Weldbond - 1
Hot Glue Gun - 1
Liquid Nails - 1
Duco Cement - 1
PVC-E - .5
Super Glue - .5

Decimal fractions were assigned to those who use more than one type of
glue.  (The person gets a value of 1, not the glue)

My college teacher (Jim Geiger) uses Titebond, thus, I have always used
Titebond.  I certainly have no reason to be dis-satisfied with it since
I've never had any problems with sharps coming off.  It just seems that
there should be a better adhesive now that we have a wider choice of
more exotic glues.

I think maybe I'll do this set with flower & water paste and see if I
can start a trend.

Thanks again for all responses,

Danny
