With all of the parts cut out. You are ready to glue them together. Withe them dry-fitted you should know about where the parts should connect, if not take a look at your 3d model. You also may have noticed that because of the thickness of the foam parts don't exactly fit well. This is because these parts were made to fit together as thick as paper, not foam. You may find that cutting the thickness of the foam off of a connecting edge will help reduce this.



To glue parts, simply put a line of hot glue onto one edge , and place the other on top of it. While the gluing is drying try to make the two faces that are now touching as lined up as possible. This will make the armor look much better in the end. Once the initial glue has dried, flip the two pieces that you were gluing over, and put glue generously on the inside of the joint. This will further hold the parts together. Note: If the glue that you are using is very hot an takes time to dry, make sure to keep holding the pieces together as this step may melt the initial gluing before drying.



Continue gluing parts and strengthening them with glue, Try to keep glue on the inside of joints, and not the outside. You may have to bend the foam pieces to keep the shape of the model, once bent it should stay like that if it is glued to other supporting parts.
