Cement holder

[R. Thorne]

This is almost too simple.   I use tamiya thin cement (with the small applicator brush) a lot and it is awkward at times to take the lid off and on.  I put double back tape on the square bottom and fasten the cement to my mat in the spot most useful but out of the way for working.  This allows me to take the lid off and on with one hand easily and I am less likely to leave the lid loose for too long as it is easy to fasten with one hand.  If I need to move it at some point, it is easily done without much damage to the mat.

I am going to have to give that a try.  sounds like a solid idea.

Sometimes the simplest answers are the beat. Those often turn into those moments when we slap our forehead and say"why didn't I think of that".

I found this on thingverse. I have not built it and tried it myself, but I have seen it in action.  Kind of nifty.

Great idea.  Did you know that the Tamiya extra thin isn't good to spill on a decal sheet,  from one who knows.

I drill a round hole thru a small piece of rigid insulation for the glue bottle to fit tight.
