Oldies but goodies - I usually have a small vial of baking soda in my
flight box for just such needs.

I tried something new I thought I would share.

One of the tips from 30 years ago when using Hot Stuff - Baking soda will
set CA off almost instantly. If you had a joint you really wanted to
strengthen you could add a small filet of baking soda, then add the CA
and it would just be done.

I don't have any thicker CA on hand, so after adjusting a VP spring, I
reassembled the mechanism, added the teflon on top, put a touch of baking
soda on the wire/teflon, then applied a tiny amount of thin CA to the
powder. It sets instantly, doesn't appear to wick in and the teflon is
locked in place better than before.

Maybe that will help some others.

Regards.
