| Assembly Tried white glue and it just wouldn't cut it. What are you guys using? Other companies could learn how to pack a box by following Marushin's example. Hard to believe a 1:48 airplane could fit in that size box. | |||||||||||||

Bill, Yep, white glue doesn't work well on heavy metal parts.. I have to break out the good'ol CA (superglue) | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Assembly
Actually, I've been getting by with Elmers... Aside from needing to glue the elevators into a few of the tails, I've not had to glue anything truly heavy -- maybe I'm just lucky. But with the parts I have had to glue I found that using elmers and then letting them set for a few hours before fiddling with the model again, did the trick. I'm really hesitant to go the CA route.. (and yeah, the packaging is awesome! I can store my entire marushin collection in the space a single FM box took up!) | ||||||||||||||
