"Model Master" liquid cement for plastic models in a black triangular 2 oz bottle. Has a long steel tube about the diameter of an upholstery sewing needle. Can squirt it or let out one drop at a time. For a long seam like putting 2 halves of a fuselage together just put the parts together and run the end of the tube down the seam and it leaves a thin bead, almost invisible.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
