Default RE: Laser Cut Kits


ORIGINAL: scigs30

I am buying more and more kits and have noticed some of the new laser cut kits recommend putting a structure together first like a jigsaw puzzle, then gluing with CA with the structure together. I normally build with white glue, makes for a strong clean joint. Should I just do what the manufacture says and build with CA or try to find a way to still use white glue? P.s I have tried Super Phatic glue and it does not wick very well.
Why could you not put glue on the pieces as you asseble the "jigsaw puzzle"? Myself, I like using CA because I have a low tolerance when it comes to patience , but I don't see where the problem would be if you prefer using a slower setting glue. I would think that the longer set-time of these types of glue would allow this.
