Drummer1061 Posted May 29, 2021 Author #15 Posted May 29, 2021 Any glue recommendations would be welcome Keith Black and mtaylor 2 Quote
mtaylor Posted May 29, 2021 #16 Posted May 29, 2021 2 hours ago, Drummer1061 said: Any glue recommendations would be welcome I'd recommend white glue such as Elmer's Glue All or the yellow Elmer's Wood Glue for wood to wood. For wood to metal... either CA or epoxy. Others will have their preferences but those are mine. I like the Elmer's as alcohol easily breaks the bond if need be and removes the clue from the wood when need be.

Drummer1061 Posted June 5, 2021 Author #17 Posted June 5, 2021 Anyone familiar with the Corel Bellona im trying to work at part 29(false cove) Quote
mtaylor Posted June 5, 2021 #18 Posted June 5, 2021 Do a search here on Corel and Bellona (use both words) in the kit log area. You should get hits. Here's a link for the search: https://modelshipworld.com/search/?q=corel bellona&quick=1 BTW, if you haven't, open a log. It's the best way to get help and meet other builders.
