Hello all,

This may be a basic question so please forgive me if so!
I recently got a Tech Priest Enginseer and glued on the backpack and axe nice and easily however the servo arm is giving me some trouble.

I am using Gorilla super glue gel and once I get a good blob in the hole and fix it to the notch on his backpack the glue is pushed out and it does not adhere, even of 15 minutes of standing stiller than those gargoyle you see on churches!

Would switching to liquid super glue help? Would appreciate any advice as the other Tech Priests are starting to mock mine for his lack of dedication to the Omnissiah

If its the current plastic tech priest you could try plastic glue instead

It might need pinning.

I glued the metal techmarine with full harness using gel superglue, I have ruined enough plastic with regular runny superglue that I haven't looked back,
It really shouldn't need pinning,

I have found that if superglue is old or been open for a long time it stops working.

Best choice is to pin it. Also it's worth noting that in most situations with superglue, less is more. Swamping the whole join with the stuff will likely make it harder to bond.
