I'm looking for advice on assembling an Awesome and a Warhammer. The Awesome is pretty straightforward, just attach the arms to the body/legs piece... except I can't get the glue to take. I'm using regular Loc-Tite superglue, I put a drop into the recess where the arm peg goes and held it for several minutes, and the glue just would not take hold. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, what did you do about it?
The Warhammer is a little more complicated. I get that there are a lot of superfluous bits so I can make any of several different variants (I'm going for a "generic" Warhammer since I don't really want to have a ton of nearly-identical 'Mechs lying around), and I've got a pretty good idea of what I want to use and how they fit together. I just can't figure out how the feet are supposed to interact with the base. Are they supposed to go into those... thingies (for lack of a better term) toe-first or heel-first?
On to the more general questions (yes, I am a newbie, why do you ask?): What, if anything, do you use to fill chinks? I managed to get my Dragon put together without help (yay, only two pieces!), but there's an unsightly (albeit tiny) gap between the upper and lower torso pieces. Also, what do you recommend for pins? A friend of mine mentioned floral wire; is there a specific size or gauge I should use?
