Which glues would be suitable for gluing on a cocobolo bridge as I have heard it can sometimes be difficult to glue. |

IME any glue, as long as the bottom of your bridge is freshly sanded or scraped. |

That is the plan - shape the bridge bottom to fit (as per tutorial- thanks Hesh!) just before removing the finish, scrape bridge bottom lightly, then final gluing. |

yeah, hide or PVA. Scraping is ideal, but sanding with about 220 grit works just fine. Do this as shortly before gluing as possible. Fresh surface is the main thing, assuming a good fit. |
