I would encourage you to keep working with it and keep trying ....low heat and slow....much like BBQ!
Thanks :-)
Sure I will try and try again, However I suspect the covering will come loose in the summer temperature and sunshine.
I am using a cloth and trying to press down as I heat it but the glue does not stick to the balsa.
Will continue to heat and press...
