Has anyone tried the Fastcap 2P-10 CA glue? Is there enough working time to get the tube in the blank?
What procedure do you follow in installing tubes in your blanks? I generally put a few drops of glue in the blank and roll it to get an even coat of adhesive inside the blank. Sometimes I use a toothpick in the back side of the blank to spread the glue inside the blank. Then I put a small bead of glue near the end of the tube and turn it as I insert it into the blank. Before the glue starts to set, I use a clean toothpick to remove excess glue from the inside of the tube, especially at the lead insertion edge.
