What would be the best adhesive to segment PR, I've noticed that CA tends to partially disolve and soften PR when I used it to glue tubes in, I may be going off the deep end but I wqant to try some segmented acrylics, at least one, Finally got the cost down to less than some wood so time to experiment.[}:)][}:)][}:)][:p]

I have used CA and epoxy. Ca seems to work a little better. And you would want to have the two mold together for best adhesion. I've not noticed the melting part myself. I have had 5 min epoxy come apart on me trying to segment my first edition Seahawks pen. Just me thoughts.

thanks Steve, I just roughed out 4 decent blanks, they nearly look like the commercial stuff so I gotta jazz them up some way, getting the cost on the blanks down so I can actually afford to turn them as slimlines and fatboy slimlines like the father sing,
