DanielleV Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 Hi everyone, got my first dollhouse... What kind of glue should I use to assemble it ? Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) Welcome to the little family, Danielle. I use a good carpenter's wood glue like Titebond to glue wood to wood and Elmer's all-purpose white glue to glue clear plastic parts. I don't glue anything until I have dry fit everything at least once using masking or painters' tape. It isn't necessary to make more than one introductory post, and there is a subforum better suited for questions concerning the Beacon Hill.

KathieB Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 What do you mean by no success? Is the glue not holding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fov Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Welcome, Danielle! Don't worry about the multiple posts, I deleted them. I think something wonky is going on that's causing people to think their post didn't work, so they're trying again. The same thing happened to me earlier this week. There's a forum upgrade waiting to applied so I've emailed Greenleaf's owner Dean to see if we can do that and maybe it'll fix the problem. (I'm also going to merge this topic into the other assembly topic to keep all your Beacon Hill questions on the same thread.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fov Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I'm going to move this thread into the Greenleaf questions forum where more people will see it. Can you tell us what you've tried that isn't working? For the foundation of a house like the Beacon Hill, I often add little blocks of wood to the inside corners of the foundation to provide more of a surface to glue to. That way you're gluing both foundation pieces to the wooden block rather than trying to glue one skinny edge to another skinny edge. Maybe that will help? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Emily, I had an issue when I'd read Danielle's other headers and went back to edit my post, and I got a "too late to edit" message; but when I'd refreshed the page, there was my nice edited post. Will the upgrade fix that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
