Building the GRISSOM

[zathros]

UHU glue works the best I've found, and ZIP DRY. It looks great though, and yes, with the formers, you do end up with a substantial piece.

That's a real testament to the designer; building not only attractively, but with the forethought to make it structurally sound.


Any progress on those German translations of the instructions?

English Translation - i ran it thru Google Translate - it's not perfect but it it readable

Not overly keen on the seems copydex maybe not be the best glue.....

Yeah! Probably not. Looks way to thick and "Tan?"...there will always be a discussion on what the best glue is to use...But I stick with the one I prefer, and that would be Aleene's Tacky Glue...it is not expensive, comes in various formulas, such as quick-grab, turbo, etc, etc...I prefer the original formula.
For laminations, I use some plain Elmers Glue-All spread with a plastic card and then rolled with a brayer. Or when making up 1mm and 0.5mm sheet stock I will sometimes use 3M spray adhesive.

I too use Aleene's Tacky Glue, or just generic school glue, Elmer's is too expensive for the speed that my grand kids go thru it.

Revision of the Google translation. Not perfect but clearer than before. Feel free to further improve it.

There is a workaround: Put the *.docx into a *.zip archive and upload that. This works with all file types which are currently not supported.

Between your translation and this inspiring build, its time to open the dry dock and paper this puppy!

No, you can upload .jpeg images and .zip them, or .rar and .pdf files. If you need .Docx for instructions, I highly suggest you make a picicture instruction ,jpeg. The upload formats have been carefully chosen, I cannot change that.

I have a bottle that I use and it is still the old formula...hate to say or rather can't say how old the stuff is...over 5 years that's for sure!

 

[AdmiralGR]

Grissom done!
