Great article Mike!

Even in this era of ready-to-run everything, there is still a need to kitbash stuff, plus it's just plain fun too!  I particularly liked using the finishing nails on the frame splice.  I'ts like a dowel joint (I'm a woodworker) in furniture building.  Mike mentions using Cypox glue, and I noticed he sells it on his on-line store.  I'd like to hear more about it and why he uses it vs ACC.  I use ACC, but find it's bonding capabilities to be limited, so I'm interested in a better glue.

Cypox seems to have the shear

Cypox seems to have the shear strength lacking in ACC or CA or whatever.  It's usable for joints that are subject to stresses.
