Glues for Building Model Rockets

Video Transcript

"I'm going to talk about glues which are used in model rocket assembly. And I'll also talk about sandpaper. Glues. Glues come in many different ways. You can buy them at the store. For building a model rocket you can, and it is in a kit on the packaging, that you can build a model rocket using Elmer's glue or white glues. I don't suggest this. There's a long drying time. And for certain parts of model rocket assembly you want a quick glue to help hold things. Then there are epoxies. Epoxies are the best thing to use. I will not use epoxies in this series due to the length of time some epoxies take. Five minute epoxies are good and I do suggest using those if you're building a rocket that might be taking some abuse. Then there are model airplane glues that are used for building balsa wood together which also works for model rocket building. I'm going to use super glue or silly glue based material. They come in different thicknesses. Use a thicker type of glue which will help build the rocket."
