Step 4The Weld
Did I mention that I love epoxy? We've been having an affair for a long time now...this cure for all ailments gives a strong joint and is the perfect glue for the wings.
Epoxy is a chemical glue that comes in two parts. Mix the two parts and the glue will harden from a paste to a solid weld. This is a fast setting epoxy, so I work in small batches as it sets up in minutes.
I used a toothpick to mix the epoxy and to apply it liberally along the edges of the joints. Once the outside is all glued and well set, apply epoxy to the inside joints as well, using a longer skewer instead of a toothpick to reach inside the tube.
