I just got my Carl Goldberg Tiger 2 ARF. I was putting it together and I accidentially got some CA glue in the blind nut that holds the wings on [sm=frown.gif]. Now the screw won't thread and I am having a tough time getting it out. Any suggestions??

CA debonder. it softens up the glue into jelly, then simply threat the nut through it. you can get it at any hardware store.

Can you get CA debonder at Home Depot or Lowes??

Do you have a tap? That is the easyist way. Second would be Debonder. If you don't have any, go get some. You will be happy you did for other things like gluing yourself to the counter. Third would be to make a tap out of another bolt. Cut slots in the bolt like a tap and put a point on the tip to help cut into the CA. All else fails, remove the blind nut and heat it with a torch to cook out the CA or just replace it. [8D]

he did say that he could not get the bolt in. without chewing up the rest of the threads the best way would be debonder. home depot has them, so does lowes

awwww heck with it....$.15 for a new one at the hardware store..LOL...good luck man...Rod

but $30 in labor to remove it

I would go with the tap. There cheap and all hardware stores have them.

I looks like there has to be a chemical like acetone that removes CA glue. Acetone evaporates so fast you might have to mix it with something slower or put tap over it. Maybe acetone won't work, but there's some chemical that would do the same.

when he said he couldnt get the bolt through without destroying the threads, I am almost certian he was refering to the nylon bolt.

use a metal bolt with slits in it to create a "tap".

Thanks everyone, I have fixed the problem. I purchased a drill bit tap at Lowes for $3.99


Thanks Everyone,

okay, but you will find later that you may need the CA debonder...

I would suggest getting some for the next time this happens too you.....
