People "Glue"?

[Tom The Brat]

You'll notice the younger brother is standing in the water. I used brass, but a galvinized nail would do nicely.

Good quality wallboard construction glue beats the others hands down. After its set you will have to cut it off. Interesting the comment "nails rust", I did say galvernised which will outlast me and you.

We use blue tac and it works but only just.

we have now moved to a small dab of clear liquid nails and it 100 % so far.

iron nails rust outdoors, brass rods do not.

I use brass rods outdoors and find this works well.

For my rolling stock, i install screws to hoild sitting figures by the butt, or standing figures bt hthe feet.

Glue does not stick to LGB plastic in the long term either indsoors or outside, the screws have always worked to date.

In the shop with dirt in the flower boxes, I put pegs in their feet. I like the idea of gluing them to a nail.

I not sure it would work at that scale, but that exaclty what Woodland Scenics 'Scenic Accents Glue' is for. I know it works well in HO, probally not strong enough for garden railroading.

Triad flat bases but garden life kept moving them. A 2 inch galv flat head nail stuck to the bottom works well. Snails, slugs and other wildlife, including some kids that cant keep their hands off, dont knock them over and you can move them around as you wish.

I've heard of some folks who attach small brass rods to the feet of their figures. The figures are then stuck into the ground, or into small holes if the surface is hard.

I use a dab of liquid nails on the bottom of each foot. In fact I usually cut the little pads off the bottom of the figures with a high speed rotary cutter in-order to make them look more realistic. Then if I want to move them I just gently pop them off with a screw driver. Have had several in one place for 4 years with both snow and 100 deg. Temps (Illinois weather). Others have been moved around several times without any problems.
Have fun!

About ready to start "positioning" my "people" around the GRR. I want to be able to move them around as I need to, and am wondering what everybody else uses to hold their people in place. Some of my folks have little "pads" to stand upon. Others, like "Hofbrau Haus Frau" do not have the little pad. I was thinking of getting some thin plexi but the wife thinks "museum wax". I'm looking at some kind of "repositional glue" if there is such a thing.[?][?][?]
