Can i use a 3D Pen with ABS to glue small (20x20mm) glass tiles onto stone surface?

Basically like a Hotgluegun just in small and with ABS instead of hotglue.

No, filament dries much faster than hot glue, it's solid within a second after coming out of the nozzle.

Use tile adhesive, it's the proper tool for the task.

Yea just to further add:

Plastic is not an adhesive.

[–] FleetingTit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Use construction adhesive. It's inexpensive and actually works with your use-case
