Re: Super glue method for installing binding
Yeah, that's the stuff I'll be using. I just don't have a pipette. I need to cut some shellac and get better tape to do the job. I've been using green painter's tape and it's not doing the job because of spring back. Fortunately, I only have to do the rosewood back and sides but oil is still the issue obviously.Diane Kauffmds wrote:I use thin ca glue that I get from woodcraft.

Here is the CA glue that I buy. You can also find it on Amazon.

Re: Super glue method for installing binding
Here are pipettes that are small. You can further stretch them to make the delivery end really small. John Hall has a video on stretching pipettes. I'll find it and give you the link. I've bought 6 rolls of 3M 233+ tape, 18mm wide, from Ebay for $28.nkwak wrote: Yeah, that's the stuff I'll be using. I just don't have a pipette.

Re: Super glue method for installing binding
try this with the pipettes
I am not kidding as I do this all the time. Take a pliers and pull the tip. This will make the
the pipette end very small for precise application.
try it and report back to me
