I've settled on 5 minute epoxy as my glue of choice for gluing in tubes. And I've come to mix a few drops of white Alumilite dye into the epoxy, instead of painting the blank and tube. Seems to work well. Anyway, I've been using Q-tips to make sure there is good glue distribution inside the blank. The Q-tip rapidly degrades into a scraggly mop after doing only one blank (out of, say 4). Even though it works out, I'm looking for a better way. I'm thinking of, say, some kind of cosmetic applicator alternative to the Q-tip. (Cheaper is better!) Rather than try to reinvent the wheel, thought I'd ask how others have solved the problem. Any suggestions as to where to get your devices of choice would also be appreciated. Russ
