Glue with a Liquid super glue.
When you use a Super glue Accelerator, Hardening speed becomes fast.
(Smoke may be generated. Don't breathe in the smoke and don't put in eyes.)
Super glue can glue a large surfaces easily.
But it can't glue a small surface such as this photo well
Then you should use a following spray.
I always use this.
Watch video.
Super glue accelerator
This can glue surfaces in several seconds.
When you use 100ml, you can make a armorset or about three weapons.
←100ml ←420ml
When you paint Bottle lacquer paint, use a paintbrush,silicon cup(Use as a paint plate. It can easy to peel
paints after dry.),
panint stick, thinner.
Make a core.
Use a PVC pipe(diameter 2.2cm).
Cut a PVC pipe. PVC pipe can be cut with a saw.
But a Pipe cutter is more better.
It can cut quickly and neatly.
This is a video of cutting method of PVC pipe, bending method, jointing method.

【Demerit】
-"Bond G17" is japanese commodity.
Then you can't get it easily.
Please use others. For example, you can substitute wood glue for it.
-You must thin it with lacquer thinner.
-It needs thinner, then you must work outdoors.
-It burns easily. Don't use fire until drying, because "Bond G17" burns easily. Don' use a Lighter etc until drying.
The parts will be charred in seconds.
