Blade tip glue question..
«

So, I asked my mother to pick me up some Gorilla glue. She did, but it is gorilla super glue...
Idk if this will work and wanted to know what you guys think or if any of you have tried it before.
Im sawing an inch off of my blade due to a crack. I need to put a new tip on, and apparently US suggests Gorilla glue. This is gorilla super glue. It is actually thicker than regular super glue, so that is a plus. I also have PVC cement, and I know for a fact that that stuff is STRONG.
I need the tip on by tomorrow night, so I need to glue it on tonight (so it has a long few hours to settle and get stronger).
I don't have any regular gorilla glue. All I have is the Gorilla super glue, and PVC cement.
If you guys have any other suggestions pertaining to sawing the blade, the cellophane, gluing the tip on, your advise is welcome!!!

I think the super glue is what they recommend. Regular Gorilla Glue has a real bad habit of foaming up all over the place because it's used for stacked wood.

Oh! Awesome!! That will work!!!
So, he mentioned a lip in the blade? What is that? Do I need to make one?

Also. I used Loctite Epoxy Plastic Bonder to reattach two tip on my blades. It works great! They have not fell off since. FYI.
