<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I use neutral pH PVA. Providing the
bones are not greasy and you're prepared to 'prop' them during adhesion, it does
work well and I have not experienced any sudden detachments! For
larger bones that have some load-bearing, these would have to be suitably
articulated of course.</FONT></DIV>
