After gluing parts that are fixed with T-Pins, are they easy to separate from the lower surface where the plans with waxpaper is?
Could someone please make a classification with the different types of glues and in which parts are they preferably used on?
Also is interesting if these types of glue are able to sand.
Yes, if you used wax paper and give each pins a 90ยบ twist before pulling.
Glues - this subject gets lots of discussion. Personally, I like thin CA for joining the wing ribs to the spars. Thick CA for sheeting the wing. Wings just go so fast with CA compared to other glues. I like CA Gel for reenforcement blocks (like wing anchors and landing gear). Epoxy for the firewall and attaching the tail (though I use CA Gel for this is there is a lot of contact area). Epoxy also for any joint that needs a lot of strength - like joining elevator halves with a dowel. Almost everything else I like Titebond II for the glue. If I have to laminate balsa or sheet the fuselage with plywood I use Titebond II. It is a PVA (polyvinly acetate) and is used by carpenters and woodworkers and sands very well, dries waterproof and flexible. Similar to aliphatic glues (fat based) like Elmer's and others.
