JoeG,
Be certain not to breath the stuff; the affects are cumulative. We
modelers tend to get our nose right down into the work area close to the fumes.
Make certain you have a work table fan or something to move that air over your
model when using cyanocryate.
Pneumonia twice (second one a real beaut) in a ten month period and many
visits to the Doctors/ Specialists and test centers convinced me to stop
using the stuff. That ended my "plastic" modeling hobby but thanks to David
Okamura I was introduced to card/paper modeling; don't tell anyone but card
modeling is three times more fun.
Sure, I still use the stuff to stiffen and strengthen small parts,
rigging attach points, etc but always at arms length and with the garage door
open.
Hope this caution helps,
Bob Penikas
