JetMads 1/32 Viggen

Q: What kind of glue is recommended or optional for working with 3D printed parts?
I am somewhat familiar with cyanoacrylate, but I suspect I will want to either get some slow drying cyanoacrylate to avoid stressing, or maybe even consider some alternatives.

What kind of glue are you guys recomending for this kit?

This looks absolutely stunning...so much for the naysayers who didn't think it'd ever see the light of day and were convinced we'd all lose our money!

I am thinking that I will probably use casting resin for a glue. Essentially this is a two part mix which should be similar to the material of the parts. I did it on my build of the Dargon Rapide as I wanted strength in the mid spine joint. I ended up using the same resin for the wing joints. Worked a treat and is so much stronger than superglue or epoxy.

the other possible alternative is to use the 3D uv printing resin set with a uv lamp but I am yet to try this method on a kit.

I was going to order from the second tranche, but really want a standard AJ-37 with two honking great R-04 missiles hanging off the wings, so I'll hold off.

I've ordered two JAs from the first run, with a view to converting one, but JETmads have indicated the AJ is a possibility, though not a firm one.

FYI - this was a couple of days ago. Seems it isn't dead yet (although they could learn a lot from JetMads about communicating with their customers).
