Glue works, too. (Better, actually.)   If you choose to go this 
way, please consider the following advice:

1. If  possible, use 5-minute epoxy  or  similar  compounds.  
Viscous, high-quality wood  glues or  hobby glues can  be used 
with care.   Avoid thin or runny glues.  CA (superglue) is not 
recommended.  

2. Leave the  tailstock  assembled  and  the  plunger  (dowel  pin) 
in place when you glue the bushings.  This ensures that the 
bushings are in the right place and are held at the correct 
diameter to 

fi

t the plunger.

3. Glue the bushings 

and not the plunger

 to the tailstock. 

4. Err  on  the  side of  too  little, not  too  much  glue.  A  few tiny 
drops are suf

fi

cient, and  you  don’t  want  to  get  any  in  the slit 

or where it could touch the plunger.  And, if you ever want to 
remove the bushings again....
