Hi Vince there is also another method of delivering liqiod glue very accurately, the name excapes me so I will do my best to describe it.
It is a thin glas tube, with a steel hoolow needle on the tip, you allow it to stand in the bottle of glue, where the tube fills by caphillery action, then lifting it out with your finger tip over the end of the tube, stopping the glue falling out and then touch the tip to the joint on the model and again caphillery action draws glue into the joint, without overspill.
It does take a little practice but once mastered is great for making models of all scales, that need precise glue delivery.
I hope this helps and that somebody will be able to give you a name. I believe that mine was made by the now defunct Aeroscale.
