Default RE: CA Glues, use and aplication

I use medium CA for most of my building (Avoid the fumes as others have said).

The only time I use wood glue (Tightbond, Elmers, etc) is to keep down the use of expensive CA on large area that require a lot of glue. So put a few drops of CA to act as "pins" or "clamps" and cover the rest with wood glue so I can keep building while the glue is drying.

Thin CA for hardening holes and for CA hinges (Use ONLY THIN CA for CA hinges)

And 30-Minute epoxy for all epoxy needs

Tony, for more basics on Kit building, read this article I wrote:
