Wobbly metal buttons on machineheads -

musicalstashmusicalstash Frets: 54
in Making & Modding


What would be the best method of stabilising the metal buttons which have worked their way loose from the tuners shafts .

 Currently they work but they wobble / rattle when the guitar is strummed .  Was going to fill the hole between the shaft and the button with superglue but wanted to know if there any other methods . 
thanks

    I've always done it by running some superglue down into the gaps. Support the guitar so gravity is your friend and leave it a good long time to soak down.
