Quick, likely stupid question. How long before a game should

[Allsmokenopancake 0]

I have a game at 8.15 tonight. But it will likely be 7ish before I can put in a new blade.

How long should I wait for the glue to dry before using it. I have other sticks ready, and have another game tomorrow, so it's not like it can't wait.

But is an hour to an hour and a half enough for it to set fully?

Cheers

That is plenty of time, you should be fine.

When the insertion point is at room temperature, it's ready to go. I think someone asked this before, but one person suggested that you could rub an ice cube on it to speed it up if you really need it in like 10 minutes. But again, when it's at room temp, it's good to go.

After you change the blade, go into the shower and put the water on cold. Let it run a little and then put the stick under the water. It will cool it down big time

or just take an ice pak and put it on it if you dont want to warp the blade (if its wood)

Nothing to worry about, enjoy your game
