Coral glues / crazy glue

There are also a ton of threads on glues, just search glue in the search.

I've used JB waterweld from Canadian tire.  No issues, and it's cheap.

Yikes.  Hope not... My monti cap encrusted right over top of it.  Doesn't seem to have caused any issues.

I just did a quick search.  There is a little zinc and sulfer in jb waterweld, but there are reports on rc where people have used multiple sticks at a time and not had an issue.
