Not a problem, thank you for your help!:thumb:

Thank you, :) I see that some of my other pics didn't post so I'll try again.

Yeah, me too. Maybe Zathros can help us.

Thank you. I have a feeling that not all of my pics posted but I can't see them. Is that due to my low post count?

This is my first clock but I've thought about building a clock for some time now. After some consideration I think that I will just work with ZIP-DRY and UHU although if your going to attempt this I would love to read of your results.

Zathros, I agree with you, we're just making paper models. I do like to keep things simple although I do have a habit of making things complicated sometimes. I remember all to well while building RC airplanes how super glue vapor burns the eyes let alone messing around with the other chemicals...

Thanks for the welcome inky. I've posted some pics (at least I think I did, you can call me supernoob )

Please excuse the poor photo quality, I just took these with my iPod. Theseare some of the first models that I have built. They are about eight or soyears old now. I gave many other models away to my kids, friends, and coworkersover the years. I built the ship in the bottle about one month ago...

All very good advice. Do you think I could save my "pringle chip" gear by soaking it in wood hardener and squashing it until dry? Or maybe I should just try to make a new gear.

Thank you for the welcome! I am very meticulous in my model building so when this clock was given to me as a gift I was very excited, but the more knowledge I gain about this clock, the more I come to understand that my best efforts may not produce a working clock. Knowing this now ( I only have...

Thank you very much. I've tried UHU and I found it stringy but then again I used it like Elmer's. I'll give it another try. I've never heard of ZIP DRY but I'll give that a try too. Thanks again!

I'm working on a paper clock and I have a few questions. Have any of you used wood hardener on your models, and are you able to use elmers white glue afterwards successfully? Also, after laminating a gear with elmers white glue, and letting it dry between a flat piece of glass and a few books it...

I've built very simple models for a number of years now. Mainly FG models that I bought and various others I have found on the net. Right now I'm working on a clock (more complicated than I'm used to). I don't get to work on them as often as I'd like, so it takes me a while to complete them. I...
