What to use for holding acrylic together??
Also when you purchase your syringe, get about a
dozen or so. They are dirt cheap, and if you mess
one up, then you will still have plenty left. They
will look at you funny if you just ask to purchase
one. Most towns won't make laws to prevent people
from purchasing them without a prescription because
they don't want the druggies reusing needles and
spreading disease. But the store clerk might give
you trouble if you just ask for one.

Also, go to Wall-Mart pharmacy department, and get the syringe with
needle, reorder # 309574. There are a number of different syringes, but
I like this one the best.

The reason that weld-on 3 works best, is because it's a solvent. Any
time that a plastic can be bonded using a solvent, using the solvent
is the best way to go, instead of using a glue.
Weld-on 3 works good on a number of other plastics as well. It's handy
to have around.

I'm needing to glue a skimmer box together from my overflow as it
got broken before getting put into my tank. Anyone know what is
the best stuff to use? I've tried several different glues without
success.
