<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Regarding foam safe CA vs. regular CA, I've done
tests with this and viewed the foam from the back side after the hinges were
installed. With 1/4" facing I didn't see any damage to the foam. The CA
quickly soaks into the hinge material and balsa and in my experiments didn't
attack the foam. Of course, I guess it may depend on how much CA is used, but
if you use enough to soak through and attack the foam then you're probably
using too much.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Therefore, if you only have regular thin CA then
it should work just fine. Do make sure that the CA is fresh though, thin CA
tends to not soak in as well once it starts to age. Hinging surfaces is one
time I won't settle for using an aging bottle of CA. My experience is that the
Super Thin Zap is excellent for hinging because it soaks in so well.

<DIV>Yes, put the higes in and install the movable surface to the fixed
surface before gluing. If you try to do one side at a time, say put the
hinges in the elevator and glue them, then install the elevator to the
horizontal stab, the CA will seal the porous surface material of the hinge
and it will not wick properly.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I forgot to mention, use foam safe CA if you are working with foam core
parts. You can use a pin in the center of the hinge to keep it centered
while pushing it into the mating surface. Draw a line on the center of the
hinge so you can verify it is centered before gluing. Take the pin out
before you put the CA on. <BR><BR><B><I>tph1@bellsouth.net</I></B>

install all the hinges for a particular surface in the slots and make sure
they are centered. Bend the surface one way, and put a couple of drops of
thin CA in the center of each hinge. The glue should wet out the surface,
add thin CA until it stops wicking into the material. Use a tissue or swab
to clean any excess CA. Do the same side of all hinges. Clean any CA off
the parts, turn over, and repeat on the other side of the hinges. <BR>>
<BR>> Do not go back and add glue "just to be safe". Once the CA sets,
any additional glue will not wick into the surface of the hinge and can
create a sharp ridge in the center of the which will lead to failure over
time.<BR>> <BR>> I have never had a hinge fail using this technique.
