#20-1: Bruce Wiese would like information regarding what glue works well for putting figures together; what primer should he use; and what protective covering should he use for figures? Personally, I use SUPER GLUE for all my work putting weapons on metal figures and Elmers glue for basing figures to stands. Regarding primer, I use RAILROAD COLORS 110009 Primer, which is gray and then follow it up with a white primer. I no longer use a protective covering although I am considering using Ral Partha's as soon as I can run across some. Like to hear from other people concerning these questions.

#20-2: Tim Acheson is currently working on the 25mm Texas War of Independence and would appreciate uniform information. I'll get a copy of MWAN's special on the period to, you, Tim. Can anyone else help him?

#20-3: Richard Houston is going into the SYW period and looking for 15mm manufacturers. The following, to my knowlege, Richard, are available: Frontier Miniatures, 7343 Branding Iron, Canutillo, TX 79835, Mini-figs, GHQ; these can very likely be obtained through most of the advertisers in MWAN. Add Mike's Models, Box 1141, Denville, NJ, 07834 to the list.
