Hi Everyone,Shy [8)]

Well I am building a Huey Hog Helicopter and there are two halfs of the helicopter that you have to cement together.But when I cement them together the glue wont hold the half togetherSleepy [|)] but when I put more glue to to hold it together it starts to seep out and it still doesnt hold the halfs together.So if you have any tips pleez post' em.


Thanks,Tongue [:P]

it's probably the glue. I would suggest waiting until the glue dried, sanding it off (careful not to sand too much) and starting over. Make sure you have something that can clamp the halves together until it dries. IE.....rubber bands, C-clamps, hair-ties etc.

let it sit!!!! i let mine dry overnight.

that's the same glue I use. Just be sure to give it lots of time, and don't play around with it untill it's dry =)

I had this problem with testors awhile ago, it was in the plastic container with the thin applicator. I now use the tube kind, and don't have a problem.
