Default Fed Up Making a Mess!

OK, I admit it, I can't think of anything better to do. I have put together maybe 15-20 Arf's. Mostly mid to 1/4 scale planes. The big ones are the problem. Glueing the wing halves together is always a HUGE MESS, epoxy everywhere and on everything. There has to be a better way. I wonder just how much epoxy you really need. I am always afraid if I do not slop it on thick everywhere I will miss a spot or have a weak bond. Do any of you just brush on enough to wet the surface? I swear I am going to try this on my next plane. Comments, help? thanks, steve
