RE: favorite glues?
I used to use Hot Stuff CA. Then I used Zap. Then Kwik Bond. I have used Bob Smith CA's but shelf life sucked. I recently bought a bunch of "OK CA" glue made by Zap. It is the economy brand. I have used it exclusively on my 4*60 build and it has been great so far. I have left the bottles out in the shop open to air and they have not gone bad, since February anyway.
I also have developed a reaction to CA. So now I wear a cartridge respirator. Best thing I have done in years was to buy that. I also use it when using paints or anything that has any kind of smell.
For wood glue I have used Sig-Bond yellow glue. That was good stuff. I just bought some Great Planes Pro Bond and I don't liket it as much. Too hard to sand.
