Thread: Least toxic glue for brass pen tubes

I use Polyurethane, its messy but not allergenic. Sika seems to flow better for me than the others I have tried. If you don't want to finish with CA you can use wipe on poly as well.
Cheers

Epoxy would be top of the list for me. Araldite'll do. I prefer the 24hr Araldite as I used to spend several hours batching up many, many blanks at a time. I find the other, quicker ones have too short a working time.

I use polyurethane for timber pens and epoxy for hybrids or resin....
Gorilla glue fir the poly, aryldite for the resin

A lot of beginners use CA to glue in their tubes as it is cheap and quick. Unfortunately it's crap and fails sooner or later, so it's good you are looking into alternatives.

Me, epoxy or polyurethane. I use polyurethane when you want some flexibility in the joint for those pen timbers that are brittle but love to move (like ebony or snakewood)
