What about super glue?

My wife introduced me to a crafters glue about 8 years ago and now I use it for everything, Amazing Goop.  I haven found anything it won’t stick to.

 

My main use for Goop is for remotoring locomotives, works great for absorbing vibration and sound.  I has some give to it without breaking loose.  It can be messy as it’s very stringy if not handled properly.  I guess the thing I like the about it the most is even though it’s super strong it can be removed using a #11 blade and long nose pliers.

 

I’ve used it in huge gobs to glue can motors to metal and plastic locomotives without any problems.

Extra Thick Maxi-Cure Cyanoacrylate worked really, really good. My bridge is on there pretty tight. Thanks for the super glue idea, and it was something that I already had.
