4thstringer Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 I know it is already glued, but what about attaching it to the base? What is your plan, it is seriously front heavy? I'm looking at pinning it, or maybe even flipping the base over and sinking its feet into clear resin, to make it look like water, over a green and brown bottom of the base. Haven't decided yet, but I suspect even 2 part epoxy is going to struggle with this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebill Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Pinning it is pretty much a must. I'm thinking of first making the underside of the base thicker, somehow, and then pinning it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solkan Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 I was wondering if it might be worth it to deform the plastic on the base so that it conforms more to the feet--(spread some plastic weld on the plastic to soften it up, then press the feet in). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clement Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Why not use putty to fill in the foot gaps? Creat little pads to mount the feet in, they should give you plenty of contact. If you do them right, they should pretty much disappear when you base. They should also give you some thickness to mount a pin in if you are so inclined.

Joebill Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Pinned this li'l guy's feet with some steel wire that I bent up under the base and hot glued the heck out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
