To "fuse"...Few tips while working with cardboard... To "fuse" it together, use hot glue, its the best glue for cardboard. It can also be used as a caulk to fill in the corrugated edges. <BR/><BR/>If you want to spray paint it... you'll have to seal it first. There is this stuff you can find at art supplies stores called Gesso. Its basically a water based "primer" that artists use so the material they're painting on does not soak up the paint. It works fantastic on cardboard. <BR/><BR/>Awesome job. You've inspired me to make a costume of these lengths. It would be super cool if you could make it so the costume could transform from walking robot to truck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
