GazB Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Hi all. Need to pick some experts' brains. Today I received some 1mm Evergreen styrene rod so I can make the tarp frame for my M1083 (tried going for 1.2, but I figured it wouldn't make much difference). What I wasn't expecting was for the rods to be so...floppy. they bend very easily, to the point that I probably wouldn't be able to add a canvas to them even with very thin green stuff. They hold the rough frame shape, but still suffer from flex and a bit of warping. Does anyone know if there's anything I could apply to them to reinforce the rods. Perhaps coat them with watered down PVA or something similar so as not to make them overly thick, but which would harden? Thanks in advance.
