TreehuggerSo for the lit port holes, do you have to melt the tip of the fiber optic strand, or can you just glue it in place with cyanoacrylate?

Barry Assheton-Smith AutorNo don't melt them. I drilled a hole just big enough for the fibre optic strand to go through making sure I left a small length sticking out, I then applied a small amount of CA Glue to the fibre optic strand on the inside of the model. Careful not to add too much as it can melt through the fibre optic (happened to me a couple of time). Once the model is painted and varnished I used a scalpel to cut the extra length from each of the fibre optic strands.
