Nice work chief. I should play around with some scrap wood while my scales are drying.
Thanks for posting.
Can this be added to the restoration Wiki please?

Thank you so Much. I wanted to try CA on a set of scales and have been searching for the proper method of use. I even got some CA and have been testing on a scrap piece of purple heart, but I have not gotten it right.
Thanks again!

Thanks Aquanin, that's a great write-up. I had to learn how to do it the hard way. I had one set that must have had 27 coats of CA applied.
Plus I'm forever gluing myself to things with CA.
I really like CA because it a fairly fast process and I just love the shine.

That is a great resource! But it kinda worries me. I am planning on making a brush handle soon out of black and white ebony and coat it with CA. But looking at that tutorial I dont see how I could possibly do that without permanently attaching the handle to my hand. Any thoughts?

I would put a screw into the brush handle inside where you will glue in the knot. Make sure you predrill so it doesn't crack. Unless you are turning it on a lathe then I would apply during the turning process.
