Either use heavy books on the project while it dries (if its flat, obvs.) -OR- dont use waterbased glue. :) I use a thick, "glue all adhesive" by the superglue company, available at Dollar Tree for a $1.<br /><br />2. Dull Blades: oftentimes, the tearing or "pilling" of the foam layer when cutting...is a matter of GLIDE, NOT DULLNESS. Pull the blade thru a wax candle to lubricate, and continue cutting.<br /><br />3. Curves: get the piece cut out, I call this the rough cut. Next, angle your blade..not really 45° but you get the idea..and cut the each edge again. You want to "undercut" all edges so that you dont see any of the foam sides. FINALLY, SAND ALL EDGES! I use a 250grit if I want to alter, smooth out the general shape (I.e. my wobbly circles) and finially a 400grit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356415040190706000.post-87990479624746120822014-04-23T10:43:10.771+01:002014-04-23T10:43:10.771+01:00Thx for the article, great work and very helpfull....Thx for the article, great work and very helpfull.<br />Do you, or anyone else, know how the prevent the carboard from bending after glueing the wals, balsawood etc ...Kayjehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09163766405118583542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1356415040190706000.post-78661042888616230492011-12-20T15:52:04.321+00:002011-12-20T15:52:04.321+00:00Thank you, there are a few tips for cutting curves...Thank you, there are a few tips for cutting curves which I can get on to in later articles... similarly, there are a range of products out there which can help you cut straight lines (both at upright or 45degree angles).

Usually a good idea to lay in a store of bandages as well... :)<br /><br />I'm interested to hear is you have any tricks for cutting curved lines, that's been my downfall on numerous occasions.Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.com
