Thanks Kevin for the rhinoglue link. I was actually referring to the other link 'undrilled pearls', but that's OK, I just checked it again and it goes off to a classifieds page somewhere over your side of the planet.

And Marc, thank you so much for your great post on gluing and posts etc. That's the most detailed info I've read on the subject and very, very useful. Much appreciated.

Julianner: You're quite welcome. One thing to keep in mind is that in almost all cases (99.9%) a physical/mechanical attachment is stronger than one done with glue. The exception to this is the Post and glue method and, done right, it is more of a physical lock than a chemical bond and it should be as strong as the post.
