Back in the late 80's I had a cast resin caboose kit by S cenery Unlimited. it
was a really nice kit and I am not sure if it is still in production. it
consisted of 2sides 2 ends and the cupola consisted of 2 sides and 2 ends plus
the roof for each. I "tack glued it with acc then when each "box" was assembled
and before installing the roof of each I solid glued each corner joint with 30
minute epoxy and let it set overnight. When the epoxy had fully cured I then
added the roof of the cupola and the main roof then masked and painted it.
Turned out pretty good. Bob LampeTo: [email protected]

Subject: Re: {S-Scale List} Gluing Urethane resin building kits
I built one of Don's resin boxcar kits back in the late '70's It runs on
SHABBONA to this day, but I forgot what I used for adhesive to hold it
together. It's a nice car and does everything it's supposed to
