Thanks!

I know my team used this stuff last year and we plan on using it again this year. >> http://bsi-inc.com/hobby/insta_cure.html
It's really thin and gets absorbed into the wood so all you need is one drop for a joint and it dries almost instantly. Make sure to wear goggles while using this stuff though.

wait you guys use goggles when using ca? like ik youre supposed to but i feel like most ppl dont

At the scioly camp that i teach at over the summer, on two different occasions did dumb idiots get glue in their eye or eyelids, after the obligatory long as heck safety lessons... you never know what happens I guess

Everyone glues their fingers together at some point, and everyone manages to glue themself to their build.

CA does fume when it cures, but the quantities that you use in any of the balsa events are so small that googles might be overkill.
