Oh i see. Because I was wondering maybe you use fast sticking glue - it makes work harder.
However I prefer PVA, especially one intended for wood. Reasonable cure time and strong bond.

It seem that Rotterdam is quite fast to build ship model? Not very much parts to be glued on card paper (thinking about decks) and etc.

Waiting to see assembled upper deck

uhu is fast enough for me plus if you get a spill on ink it kinda rolls up in a ball and peels off.
have still to put all small details on decks but the main body of model is a simple build.any errors you spot are a result of me rushing it not a design fault in kit

ok its seems i owe paper trade models an apology.the johan witt model i purchased from scaldis that is mentioned here is in fact a paper trade model.Happy to apologise for error and to give due credit to paper trade
