| Sorie, thanks for the complement I really enjoy making those. :o) My plates have held up really well. We have had lots of rain a hard freeze for 4 days (unusual in my zone)Nothing seems to be falling off. There is one thing that I notice that has caused some problems with glueing. Once I put the 2 item together with the glue (GEII) I noticed that if I move the pcs for any reason or if I shift it or take it apart and put it back together,they just don't glue as well. I try to be very precise the first time or it doesn't take as good. And there seems to be somthing about pressing real hard till you hear that burp. If there is any air pockets in the glue ... then it has a problem. I hope this helps Hugs, Carmen |
