    Hello Andy 😊. What kind of glue is watery like that for the crafting needles in I can find in Canada? I am a model making newbie, right at the beginning of using the right tools. Is it crazy glue?

      I would suggest holding the flame in place for longer. If it doesn't work, perhaps your needle is bent or there is some other problem.

      Once the flames have been at it, sometimes I have to give it a quick tap on a table to get it flowing. I find that I have to repeat the whole process every time I don't use the glue for a few weeks.

    Hey man, don't be so damn ambiguous when sharing information! When you say "cool for a little while," how about being more specific on how long that "little while" is???
    "A little while" can be highly subjective and can mean 10 minutes, half an hour, two hours....it would be nice if you were more helpful in being more specific, so that the rest of us who are learning these tips don't have to guess!
