kscadman Posted July 3, 2017 Share #344 Posted July 3, 2017 Whats the difference between the PVA and the Elmers glue. I've been using Elmers for years and haven't had any troubles with it. Nut I'm always looking for a better way. Richard Quote Current Build - U.S. Syren 2nd Build - HMS Bounty Launch When organizing your thoughts, never use the Dewey Decimal system.

Mahuna Posted July 3, 2017 Share #345 Posted July 3, 2017 PVA is a type of glue - Elmers is a brand name for their version of PVA glue. Titebond is another brand name. All PVA glues sold as wood glue work well and can be unbounded using hot water or isopropyl alcohol.

HIPEXEC Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share #356 Posted July 31, 2017 Sliver's gone! Now I'll sand the hull and micro-fill some very small spaces. Varnish would probably hide them, but I'll make some filler by sanding some left over planks for their sawdust. I know what you're saying..."shoulda' painted the hull like the instructions say." I just happen to like looking at un-painted wood.

HIPEXEC Posted August 1, 2017 Author Share #357 Posted August 1, 2017 I've been sanding the hull since yesterday. First with coarse paper now with fine. I have to be careful since I'm only sanding thin veneer which is very thin. I'm almost where I want the hull to be before a coat of varnish.
