                        Glad to hear it worked out for you...I've been in similar situations before regarding humidity and painting...sit there scratching my head wondering why it's taking forever to dry when just the day/week before it was trying in a fraction of the time. Big Smile [:D]

                        I am such a duh! DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
                        I glued it last night and put it in the window, and it was VERY cold last night, i had a fan circulating on it, and it was down to the low 50's to high 40's, farrenheit, today its sunny and I am looking at it and its hardening quite nice...... I hate when you think you know it all and you forget the basics Blush [:I]Banged Head [banghead]Boohoo [BH]

                        Not really sure why it would still be soft. I do not think the dremel caused the plastic to not cement. I suggest that you use some CA glue or Epoxy glue if it doesn't harden.

                        Cheers

                        I have an M60 tank I am building and i glued the wheels on wrong I looked at the directions 10 times and still got it wrong, the wheels were in the wrong place to put on the "shock absorbers,... must be my dyslexia?, anyway, enough excuses, I had to "rip" those four wheels off, and then drilled them out with my dremel tool, then reset pieces of sprew for my studs, and then put them in place and glued them down, I then reglued with very little glue... this was about 18 hours ago, they are still VERY soft... *movable*.... I am wondering if the dremel heated the plastic and fubared the plastic? Or should i just have more patience and wait another 18 hours til they completely dry?
