I have never felt the need to cut vee notches in the ends of the prop sticks. To get the proper length, I just clip them square across with my fret pulling flush end nippers.

Any thoughts on how long I should allow the CA glue to harden before attempting to scrape or sand it down?
Hardening time varies a lot, so the only way I know to test it is by pressing it with a fingernail, or by gently scraping it to see if it fuzzes up....meaning it is still soft.
If that happens, I shoot it with CA accelerator. There is a risk that the CA could foam and turn white, but if you wait long enough before using accelerator, the risk is minimized. The CA I use is odorless, and is much less likely to foam when using accelerator.
