Hi all, I've just been looking at the SHQ Miniatures website and found a lot of great stuff that isn't (readily) available in Injection moulded form. I've never worked with white metal except for aeroclub stuff. How do you bond the stuff when assembling? Superglue, 5 minute epoxy? Soldering (never tried it)

I've used superglue. Bear in mind that this stuff is made for wargaming so you are lacking in the fine details that would get knocked off with too much handling.
