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). Patrick Draine On Aug 15, 2005, at 9:44 AM, FRANCES HELMS wrote: > Forgive me.
