>Hey Mark

I was re-gluing a pen tube into a piece of corian the other day and had a brain fart and didn't put on any gloves. That is the ablosute worst I have ever glued myself to something. Three fingers completly stuck across each finger pad to the corian plus glued my fingers together. Took me 45 minutes to get free. No lost skin.

>Someone suggested squeezing the CA bottle to clear the nozzle after use. Good idea. But holding it up to my ear to listen and be certain of the air discharge was not. Guess where the excess glue went.

>yeah, I know how you feel... I was finishing some Freedom Pens the other day. All I had was the thin CA... so I held everything over the shop floor to keep the mass quantity of drops off the bench. Since I was doing the RED, WHITE and BLUE thing with Corian, I was also gluing layers together along with gluing tubes... all the time dripping on the floor.

Well I sprayed the whole works with the accelerator, copious times, and felt mass burning all the way to the cuticle! Smoke, the whole enchilada!

Well, I shook my hand� like that was going to do any good� and as the cuticle was cauterizing, I tried to run for the Super Solvent from Woodcraft� only problem was my feet didn�t move� seems my shoes were stuck to the floor� face plant! (Now I don't have to worry about coming in the house with my shoes on...)

Took a while to get everything unstuck� That Super Solvent really works� even used it to disassemble a fractured African Blackwood pen that was sitting for six months� took all the glue off the metal and didn�t even hurt the finish!! Best $5 I ever spent� and sure beats skin grafts!
