How do I glue photo etched parts?
There is glue specifically designed for gluing photo etched parts, but this is basically a strong super glue (cyanoacrylate glue).

Some people even use PVA glue if the part is not going to be touched very much.
Always use the glue sparingly and apply with a toothpick or thin piece of wire as this will give you greater precision. You need just enough to glue but no more.
