Default RE: Adhesive Question

I use Elmers White most of the time. (as well as some CA and epoxy)...
I like the fact that it dries clear.

At $14 a gallon at Home Depot it goes a Looooong way.

You NEED good pins when you use one of the slower setting glues like Elmers. The "T" pins are in my opinion just too large in diameter. Check out the modelers pins from Hobby Lobby or *bay for insect pins. I buy #5 or #6 size. They're black enamelled and super cheap.

You can also find popsicle sticks, tongue depressors, acid brushes, little plastic throw away shot glasses and my favorite "The Monoject 412 syringe" for mixing and applying the sticky stuff. Buy in bulk if you're a kit builder.

These are the wing panels for my new Killer Chaos built with Regular Ole Elmers Glue all and a little epoxy.
