Hi Erik,
thats the method I use and I may have published it some time ago. It is the
best method in my humble opinion as the tube is vertualy glued it's full
length. You will need to make a tool from abt. .010 inch spring steel wire
to retrieve the looped thread from the second hole, then half hitch it to
secure before using the CA.

Subject: [RCSE] securing pushrods
Thanks to all that have been answering all questions.
I've had alot of them in the past few weeks.
I need to anchor the pushrods in my Edge. What is the
easiest and most secure method to do this? I'm sure
many methods work well. There are two that I've been
considering.
1. Wedging the housing in place with foam and using
stick to reach down into the fuse and apply some
adhesive. What kind of adhesive works well,
silicone,epoxy?
2. I read of a method where some tiny holes are
drilled in the fuse. then some thread is looped
through the holes and around the pushrod housing.
Next some thin CA is dripped into the hole bonding it
all together. The hole is then filled with filler,
sannded and painted over. Does this method work well?
Does anybody know where I read this?
Thoughts and suggestions would be greatly apreciated.
Thanks
Erik
