I used 3M-77 for years because it was quick & easy. Contact cement is very
unforgiving and twisted / warped wing panels needed to be dealt with
occasionally. I am somewhat more patient now and use finishing resin epoxy.

I will be interested to see how you come out if you have the foam supplier
cut your cores. High taper ratios ( two or more ) call for smaller cutting
wire. Who and where is the supplier located - I need some foam ?
Is the the JWR Blue adhesive similar to 3M 77 contact adhesive ? If so you
want need the vac bag. Most builders use epoxy or polyurethane glue for wing
skinning. Nat

Thanks Jimmy. I found a local source that provides foam board, blocks &
shapes for many applications, including packaging and constructions forms.
They cut four blocks of 1# to 4X36X18 and then gave me a can of glue to
try all at no cost. Great people to work with! They can even cut the wings
if I provide the masonite templates!

Jay, depends on where you are. There are places in/around Atlanta--check
with Mike Hester-he buys all the time.ACH foam Technologies. I just bought
7 sheets in Nashville. Mix of 0.5 and 0.9 oz foam (virgin). Company was EFT
Corporation. Might try them.1 615-832-6222.
