Little Building Co. recommends a good quality PVA wood glue. There are a number to choose from and they typically dry clear, thats what you want. Some are specifically fast drying and the exterior grade normally dries faster than the exterior. The good thing about PVA is that you have time to reposition your parts if you mis-align them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: American Cherry, Aspen, Birch, MDF and Acrylic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model contains 167 parts.\u003cbr\u003eThis model takes one person approximately 14 hours to assemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel Scale 1:500\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall Dimension: Approx L: 9\" x W: 12\" x H: 5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in Australia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Building Co. recommends furniture wax on all models except the Farnsworth House, because getting wax on the clear acrylic windows would be difficult to remove.
