Hi Mark,

    Yes, I used to use just the normal stick hot melt as you would use
    in a glue gun (Bostick or one of the generic industrial ones) but I
    cut little bits off the stick and heated them in place either with a
    small flame if they were on metal or a soldering iron if on wood.
    Just recently I found 

    www.musicmedic.com and on this page http://tinyurl.com/yoz29w 

    they have a range of adhesives. I have just finished repadding a
    couple of flutes using the little glue 'pearls' which seem to be
    good. These are shellac based but I suspect that they may also
    contain a bit of resin. The company seem good to deal with and I got
    quick delivery even though I'm in the UK. 

Best wishes,
Ian
