[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 177990, member: 2517"] Good one Bruce...I do not recall using super glue, it would not have appealed to me, being in such a small bottle. As stated in my other post I certainly would have run a 2-3 day test on the adhesive, and probably made note of it in my 'logbook' such as it is. Maybe I used the newspaper trick with contact cement, such as one does on a counter top..the newspaper doesn't stick to the contact cement why dry so you can slide paper under your Formica, position it, then slide out the paper. Now thinking of it, it'd be a challenge to roll the UHMW and slide it into a tube without having it stick. Then too, one could make a longer tube of UHMW, wrap it up tightly so you're sure the top goes in, then let it swirl outward so it'll stick all the way down the tube, and if long cut it off. I love doing stuff like that, you think you've accomplished something when it all goes together. [/QUOTE]
