When glueing frags it can be tough to support taller corals and hold them still while the glue hardens. I bunch up a towel and set the plug and frag inside so they are aligned vertically and let them sit while the glue cures. If I try to do it with my hands the smallest movement slows the curing of the glue. Hope it helps someone.

How do you keep the glue from dripping and sticking the frag to the towel?

By putting the glue on the frag first for a min. Before setting the fray on. Also by using gel glue. Works great and frees your hands up for the next frag. In the big towel I use I can find 3 or 4 folds for setting the frags in.
