Applying any glue before removing the truss rod, ESPECIALLY water thin glue that can travel faster than you can manage, is just plain irresponsible. How much you wanna bet the truss rod nut is locked in place?

When applying glue, the idea is to put in enough that the compression of the break squeezes out excess. This guy keeps applying glue.

Eh.

Makes me and Roman look good, I guess.

Cyano isn't the right glue for the job.

Talk about approaching a job unprepared.
