Gluey lesson

A lesson to be learned – you can’t stick wood to plasticised* hardboard with wood glue. If you do the parts separate again.

If the parts are a stand for a model boat then you end up dropping the model and breaking bits off.

The flagpole went back on without any problem. The top of the searchlight will be more of a problem.

The stand has been re-assembled with 2 part epoxy. It won’t come apart now !

*It said it was painted, but the paint feels like plastic.
