I usually use white glue mix and coat all balsa at contact points with the tissue. If you haven't read all the instructional information that comes with your kit, get busy. We all have our own brand of voo-doo that gets used in constructing these craft and the building brochures that Guillow's put out basicly put you in the middle of building technology. The best advice is to experiment and find what works best for you.

i am changing how i cover a little. now i take white glue, put it over the frams that touch the tissue, wait until dry, then spray it with watter or nasle spray (salt water) inside of a presurized can to make it easy to apply.
