The Loose Association of Wargamers

We're not allowed to have Poundshop in this part of Surrey - it lowers the tone apparently. And if there was, it would probably have to be called something like SovereignStore (TM).

Or be generous with the spray varnish and hope the tackiness of both surfaces does the job instead.....

Whats the best sort of varnish to use to emulate glue ?

Ooooh, now there's a thread I bet we've never had before.....

This for the thin stuff, if that's your mouse catcher of choice.

Personally i recommend soldering

It certainly sticks plastic figures together well, even if you do lose a bit of the detail....

In Michael Perry's gaming bunker is a dice bowl that, when observed closely, turns out to be made from a load of cheap, plastic toy soldiers which have been joined together by the application of overwhelming heat and then shaped. I always consider it a sobering reminder of my dice-rolling skills.....

Used to sell it in Trago Mills for £1 but now I can only get it at Lawsons £2.50.
Never had any problems with it.



Willz.

I use the same stuff. Industrial strength, order in packs 3 from Amazon.
Can't stand that gel stuff.

Does it last in the tube long enough to be value for money?

Mine does because I made a small, pointy steel stopper for it.

A lick & a spit usually works.
