This man is a true living genius and speaks volumes to his character for wanting to share his knowledge for free.

[PowderMill]

This is one of the best and underrated YouTube channels!
I’m a terrible woodworker, but I am an EE with a love of RC drones and amateur radio, so I will definitely be using these great techniques.

Thank you!

[desparky]

My success with use and storage of Superglue over the last 45 years or so has always been hit and miss. This one video has told me where I'm going wrong. Huge thanks.

You guys rock. I can't wait to see what you guys have next up your sleeve's! What an amazing mind, his speech is so great and fluid and you can just tell how intelligent he is just simply by his speech alone. His producer is a perfect match, keeping him on track, and making sure to be a great connection between the audience and the inventor himself. I just love this stuff. I'm going to be watching all night I'm sure. I'm a 30-ish women, so I hope you know that this material is very appealing to at least ME in the demographic that I am apart of. Albeit I've been told I'm an old soul and I enjoy working with my hands and do not have a Facebook...so take that with a grain of salt in regards to "my" demographic. Haha. Thank you so much for this much needed, engaging, interesting educational entertainment!

There’s a special magic that happens when you listen to a master talk so passionately about their craft and the details of their techniques. Such a treasure trove of valuable information and it’s had me question some of my own preconceptions around the use of CA glue, especially around wood working. Would love to see some of this knowledge applied to plastic and metal applications (especially as someone passionate about 3D printing).

[toddwmac]

Great vid and channel in general. Thank you, gentleman. For any skiers out there, I've been using JB weld as a ski base repair for years with perfect results.

[dberry]

Learned more about CA glue from your videos in 20 minutes than the last 40 years since the guy glued his hard hat to an I-beam on TV. I'd like to see your setup for routing the nice edges on the box you built. Subscribed for more!

[Vdubjer]

Sir, your videos are gold to all of us fellow makers!

[aceenterprise]

Thank you very much for this follow up video, greatly appreciated! You not only answered my questions, but a lot of others I hadn't even thought of. Wealth of information in this video, can't wait to see more!

[PinePondCTDevilsHopyard-fyhj]

Great answers! Fast moving information we all need. All totally logical.
Cannot wait for my four pack of 2 oz, 8 oz refill and length of tubing to arrive tomorrow. Never bought so much glue in my 70 plus years!
You guys are opening people's eyes to fast glue repair and construction that truly lasts.
You guys may need a new channel devoted to only CA.
Thank you for your instructions and know you will have great success in the CA off shoot.

[specialks]

Merry Christmas Dave and camera man! I will try the loose chair method and look forward to using CA now that I know how. I never had much success before but I always did it wrong. Thanks

[aball]

Dave, 2 questions.
1. Do you prefer storing it in a freezer or refrigerator?
2. The problem i ran into from keeping a larger bottle in the fridge is the screw on cap keeps glueing to the bottle and I can't get it open. How do we prevent that?

[papabear]

Question… I stripped out a pull up bar screw. Can I use your baking soda and Super Glue technique to repair the threads in the wood so that I can re-mount my pull up bar?

[hoog]

Hi Dave. What is this oily glue that is now on the market, any good? Thanks for all the little nuggets of information, looking forward to many more. You could have your assistant asking questions all the way through the videos, sometimes the best information is ad-libbed as you remember bits and pieces of info. Best wishes from UK.

[GeeWit]

Nice job, including Mr. Producer's great organization (including chapter/question links). I've had a chance now to spin up on BSI's website and other YouTube channels' CA tips & tricks, and one thing is seems pretty clear :: thin CA use-case info is, well, very thin. But it looks as if you have already realized that and intend to remedy it....

[spikelove]

Super cool stuff. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. My question is if I mix baking soda and super glue and made a patch for something metal if I painted it after would it then be waterproof being out side ?
I saw a YouTube using Ramen noodles and super glue to make a patch what's your take on that gimic for clicks and views, or is there some validity to that mixture .

[mikewaxx]

when using CA on metals should the surface be sanded first?

[darattaqwa]

Wow! I just asked a question on the original video and here I am 2 mins later watching you answering my very question!! Amazing

[steves]

Is there a danger of bonding skin with the CA water thin glue?

[plakor]

This is really good info. Thanks. If you haven't already, can you make a video demonstrating the o-ring making process? Oh, and I still have and use my early 80's vintage JBL 4311B control monitor speakers.
