Smit Nederland Model

Hi Dave M

Thanks for the advice on the two part epoxy and the sanding sealer.
Yes, I do plan on making a Build Blog on my Smit Nederland!
I asked for advice because the kits from Dumas don't come with Glue or Painting advice!
Looking forward to building the Smit Nederland!

Hi Ed
ABS and wood can both be glued with Epoxy (two part) but white aliphatic wood glue will work just a well on wood to wood joints.
Billings kits I have built in the past did tend to give advice on the glues to use.
A light coat of sanding sealer works well for me. Make sure you coat both inside and out and support flat sheets to prevent warping.
A Build Blog of your progress would be great!
Good luck
Live long and prosper

Smit Nederland Model

Hi all,

Towards the end of the month.
I'll be Ordering the Billings Smit Nederland in 1:33 Scale.
The Hull is ABS Plastic while the Deck and Superstructure is made of wood! I think 1/8" ply and 1/16" Ply.

My question is what glue should be used?
Or would any one recommend to be used?

Also what should i use to seal the wood
before I paint it?

Thanks.
Ed
