For those that use CA glue,especially the thin if you haven't found out about the micro tips they are great!
Ryan at woodturningz threw some in one of my orders when he sent a shipment.
They are a small tube with a tapered end that slip over the end of the spout on the glue bottle.They're great for applying small drops rather than a stream when finishing.
They are exorbitantly priced when you can make you own for a few cents.
I ran across this in a model building forum.
Get some of the small hard tubing like used in aquarium set-ups.1/8th dia.
Light a candle and hold about a 6" piece over the flame till it starts to soften.Revolve it as you do so.
When you"feel it start to "stretch" raise it away from the flame and pull the ends ever so slightly.The center section will taper from both ends.
I blow into one end to cool it and keep it clear.
Cut it in half and you got 2 micro tips.
You may decide to keep buying them but when you run out and they're hard to find you can always get the tubing at the Borg.
(moderator you can put this in the tips section if you choose)
