For balsa, epoxy or PVA / white / carpenters glue is usually used.  In any case, this site is just a forum, we don't sell anything.  Glues are usually available in your local hardware stores.

See these threads for discussion about glues...

Araldite, Pidilite (Fevicol guys) all have various types.

Please use the "Search" option, you will be surprised at the amount of useful information already posted :)

Please do not type in all capital letters, it is considered "SHOUTING" in online etiquette.  The main reason is that it makes reading of text difficult where there is too much of it.

If you go through the above threads, that should answer your question.  I understand your excitement as a beginner, but please do spend time reading the threads, use the "Search" functionality to find more information... and THEN ask questions.  The amount of information/knowledge you gain by reading these threads CANNOT be gained by my one line answers :)

We all hope to see your balsa model flying soon :thumbsup:

Which balsa model? Powered or free flight? And size? For smaller mdels feviquick works well and keepa weight low as you dont need to use much for a good joint.
