Is there a tool to hold the glass pieces while applying glue then putting piece in place? I was thinking using a small suction cup on a stick but getting it to release without moving the in place piece might be an issue? Maybe tape wrapped around finger (sticky side out) might work? All thoughts and ideas welcome... IMG_5621 by braat33, on Flickr

Chewing gum, used. Trident Tropical Twist – Bursting with More Flavor. 15 14-Stick Packs (210 Sticks) $9.79 at Costco. Quarter of a stick’ll pick up the average cab or tumbled piece. Half a stick, about a quarter-inch ball, just picked up a 2” x 4” Laguna slice weighing 36 grams no problem. Also comes off very easy, without messing up placement.

Nope...grand nieces would not approve/be grossed out and I need them to push me around in my wheelchair later...

Just hide the wrappers and tell ‘em it’s museum putty. : )
