I just received my order of buildings from Outland Models, which are 3D printed.
What adhesive would you use for these models? ACC?

It depends on what material was used to make the 3d model. Your best course of action is to ask the model producer. Using a random glue will result in either a perfect bond, or an unrecoverable mess. |

For myself I use CA for all 3D-prints, PLA (which I use seldom), resin, polyamide or smooth fine detail plastic. And for glueing polyjet resin to wood (for my tunnels), I use 2-components adhesive (Stabilit Express).

Thank you
I think I will go with your suggestion.
These Overland Models are inexpensive and I got them primarily for fillins until I make my own, i.e., getting an idea of sizes, etc.

Hi, With PLA I use normal liquid glue for plastics (brand is Revell). It's available at every modeling shop here in Europe. It is not fast glue (enough to have time to adjust, but not too long) but it works fine and is totally invisible, and strong enough.  charlie |
