I haven't used a t pin in 25 years. I use thick and thin ca for most things, epoxy on gear and center sections of spars and tail surfaces. I use ca for everything else. I do put a bead of yellow wood glue on ribs at spar, trailing edges, leading edges and things like that so it can penatrate and give extra streangth. Never had one come apart and in dog fights, my planes stay together when others come apart. they are the same weight for the most part too. Use a round end dental tool to put the white or yellow wood glue in or your finger to get most off. You just need a fillet. Works great. Epoxy firewalls too. Add triangle stock if they don't put it in. Makes it way stronger.

Have a blast.
