Ric, Thanks for the info. It sounds a lot like hide glue without the mess,
although I ever found hide glue to be all that messy since it cleans up
easily.

Its a kind of hot glue.  Soluble in hot water.  I've been warned away 
from using it in any wood to wood high stress situation so I dont use it 
for anything other then bushings.  But its really easy to use and not 
messy at all.

Cheers

    I never heard of pearl glue... what's the skinny on that? Also, I've
    been
    using PVC-E glue on the keywood and use the Bushmaster system. I
    never had a
    problem removing bushings which were glued with PVC-E as it is water
    based.
    Comments?
