Found some 20ml bottles of superglue in Poundland. Used some today and it gives excellent results. They're branded under the Tommy Walsh range. Go on ask how much?

I use the packs of 4 x 7g (28g) from poundland, they come with fine dispensers for fitting to the nozzle, or at least I did before I bought 20 x 50g from Dan.

4 x 7g (28g) from Poundland are a better deal than the 20g:thinks: used em ever since they started selling it!

I bought some thin, medium and thick CA at Harrogate last year. The thing is great for filling cracks and strengthening spalted timber. The thick is great for attaching the centre and of Euro pens if you have cut the recess too small. I still have to find a use for the medium stuff

Like buying petrol lots of choices real happy for you if poundland works for you and others I do like smaller containers easier to handle the big combos have good turnovers so fresh stock helps.

CA reminds me of ideas they can flow until theres too much and the day you depend on them they fail to work or dry up. In an anomoly I used to buy in America quite a few at a time from an IAP source and keep thin medium and thick nowadays I only prefer medium. Bit like petrol lots of hocus pocus out there. The one I choose is absolutely relied on by modellers who depend on the stuff. Me I am down to one coat of CA to see the real pen.
