That’s the Applicator on the right to get into tight spaces.
Superglue is great for certain applications.
I use it for small parts. Contrary to Planking, which I use Titebond Translucent Wood Glue.
You can also use Superglue when you’re desperate to attach a couple of pieces together in a hurry.
Just don’t get it on your fingertips. If you do, use Acetone to remove it.
This Dap Weldwood Contact Cement works pretty good for doing this 2nd Layer Plank work.
With the exception of one thing. I have found that often I would have to use supplemental gluing for the areas that are experiencing Pressure. Primarily on the Bow and Transom.
The Bow, I’ve basically cured it by using my Jig and prebending the Planks before applying the Contact Cement. In other words, I don’t apply the wood and force it to bend around the Bow. The first few times I did this, I had to use SuperGlue and hold it down for a minute or so.
I’m not a big fan of SuperGlue. I’m skeptical whether it will come apart in a future date.
So… I try to use the Titebond II Wood Glue with a Clamp to hold it in place, if u can help it.
Here, I’m clamping some boards that weren’t tight enough on the Transom.
As much as have tried to avoid it, I’m having to make a Cannon Production Line.
Each Cannon Carraige takes me around 15-20 minutes to make.
After making about eight or nine of them are so, I found out that I am not making the front part correctly. Not that anybody would ever notice… but I would notice so I corrected it and I would just have to live with the ones that I have made a mistake on.
I was putting the Buffer on the front on a bit too low I found
First I attach both Cheeks to the Transom. Then I attach the Bed to the Rear Axle and attach it to the front Axle. Then the Wheels come next.
I must say that I’m really loving this Superglue with Gel Control for doing the small precise work…
Also, I noticed that it has a bit of a floaty quality to it with the part so it allows you time to adjust it as you apply the part.
I inadvertently mixed some Superglue into a section that already had Titebond II on it.
I was a bit apprehensive about whether the Superglue would stick or not. Surprisingly, it did hold. I poured Superglue literally into the the section that already had Titebond II on it… Basically mixing the 2 together.
