Many of today’s limited run models are made using resin. Although similar to plastic, resin requires different adhesives to assemble the parts. This video shows how to do the job using cyanoacrylate adhesive, commonly known as super glue.

  1. I second Mr. Smith's previous comment. I would like to see some more step by step videos describing resin kit building technique. Grab Iron installation would be a start. I would love to see tips for aligning the sides and tops of flat kits. Removal of flashing……. Such kits could provide material for quite a few video I'd guess.

  2. Good tip about the micro brushes! I always use a tooth pic and I didn't realize I could use the micro brush. I'd love to see you guys do a step by step resin kit like an F&C box car or something similar to see your tips on drill holes for grab irons and installing. Nice start to Video Plus! Keep it coming!
