Other than cost, is there a reason CA glue is unsuitable? I'd used
it on wood (not as a joint glue) and it does bond pretty well.
Depending on the CA glue, you could get 30-60 seconds of open time.
(Some of the thick stuff really needs accelerator or clamping.)

Historical "Crazy Glue" products are pretty brittle so don't do very
well in shear.

That's what I was thinking of - don't woodturners commonly
use CA glue to attach scraps of wood so they can hold their
work on the lathe, expecting to just rap the scrap with a
hammer to remove it when done? Because the CA glue is
brittle and just breaks off when the scrap is hit.

More for pen assembly and also used as a finish on lathe projects like
pens.

I use it for trim corners, crown, etc.
I also use hot glue but CA is a bit cleaner and sandable.


Absolutely as do I. I was commenting more with the use with a lathe.


And I was just commenting. You know me. ;-p


Yeah and so was I. LOL Good on you!
