I was thinking about adding a grip to the bottom third of my Liberator, similar to Anakin's/Vader's hilt.  I was just wondering what kind of adhesive people found to have the most success with on metal hilts.

If you get the grips from TCSS, they're stickies with adhesive on the back I believe.

Well, there's a hobbyshop in my area called Pegasus. They sell a bottle of Super Glue with their name on it that I find to be the BEST. This stuff would hold together through an atomic explosion! I've used it on trains, slot cars, props, sabers, metal, plastic, I think wood once... it is indestructable!

I usually love Gorilla Glue, but for some reason doesnt work well on metal. Try Krazy Glue, it seems to work pretty well for me. If not, just head by your local hardward store and check out of the industrial strength stuff and see what works well with metal and stuff. Just ask them what they think and carry in your saber to show them. Plenty of times I have taken my sabers to measue stuff out.
