Anybody have any liks to non HBG World War One naval and air units in Axis and Allies scale???
Need Konig Class Dreadnoughts and iconic ships of the period
Anybody know what kind of plastic is used for axis and allies pieces? (I’m trying to find a glue that will bond pieces to an acrylic base) Super glue and model glue don’t work that well.
Hi, I do not know the type of plastic used on the sculpt but JB Weld makes a plastic weld that works on most things. It sets in 5 min and cures in an hour. I have never used this on sculpts however.
I know exactly what you mean. I tried to glue artillery to infantry bases with super glue. It worked to an extent but I have some that didn’t hold or stick well.
Have you tried a hot glue gun?
Hot glue is more for fabric - I’m wanting something that will actually meld the two together - like model cement does with models. I ordered some JB Weld - will let you know the results.
I’m not 100% sure, but based on the softness and flexibility, I believe they’re made out of polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE). A notoriously difficult material to glue to. (Same plastic super glue bottles are made out of)
Scotch Weld DP 8010 works with polyethylene, but it’s expensive.
Superglues, gorilla glue and pvc glue, won’t work that well.
For a more mechanical hold, you could try roughing the surface with sandpaper.
Good Luck! :-)
Double-faced tape might be an option.
This looks like a job for duct tape.
E6000 will glue anything.
