Hi Rehd;

Y'all keep saying that it is expensive, but I wonder . . . You can get 8oz for $12-15 or so, and that is probably more than I have used in my whole life. If you have never played with the "thin" CA, you'd find it does not take much at all. A drop will wick into and wet perhaps an inch of a tight joint of 1/4" thickness, perhaps a few inches if the joint is really tight and you drop it up-slope ;-)

No need to wet every inch of wood strip, perhaps every 8" or so - thinking out loud. The epoxy will take care of the rest of the glueing operation..

"Try it, you might like it!"

Best Regards, Spidey
