use a twin sided tape for that purpose
they are available easily in the market and are cheap
reinforce the bond using tape
are u serious ?  no way can a twin sided tape be used for joining surfaces!  get epoxy from the local hardware store. ask for araldite rapid( 5 mins glue) else get the normal araldite .normal araldite takes time for it to cure before u do the bonding!
another idea is using HOT GLUE . just make sure its not too hot!

i m 100% serious and i have tested that method in a plane which i build in order to see how can we sand thermocol
if u reinforce with a piece of tape it works fine
actually the foam based 2 sided tapes are very very strong-in class 7th i build a hovercraft powered by vacuum cleaner and the polythene was stuck by a 1" foam based double sided tape and believe me after long usage the poly.. torn from the hole beneath the vehicle through which the air escaped but the joint at the side of the 1" ply to the poly didn't break and when i tried to take it off oh man it was not coming i had to use a lighter to free the bond and get rid of the poly[as my mother wanted to use the ply for some purpose]
so they can be used for that purpose easily

Get HC Foam Safe CA (2-3), CA Accelerator and CA Debonder, if you can spend the $$, nothing can the beat. Else Fevitite/Araldite Rapid are good  local options. I use all the combinations - Foam Safe CA, Fevitite and Tapes. be wise!

"Try Pidilite's(the company which manufactures fevicol)Fabric glue ........
Its foam safe and dries faster than fevicol......also it makes more stronger bond than fevicol....."

Pidilites Fabric Glue

Speedracer, thanks a ton!!! This stuff is GREAT for Depron builds. Cures faster and is waterproof.

Cheers! :thumbsup:

and/or a setting for that camera for focusing to the closest object
i have a nokia n73 and it cannot can take close up pics automatically[without any setting]
when i change it into close up mode with a forced flash and -2 exposure then  it takes a perfect pic[indoors]

One thing I noticed about two side tape...
I had this coro battery compartment which was padded with 5mm biofoam with a 2 sided tape. During the crash, the battery ripped open, the coro got destroyed, but whatever was left still had the biofoam firmly stuck to the coro sheet via the 2 sided tape... So for some application, this actually works

well with my personal experiance-it is good espcially with thermocol
it joins them tight and is not easily detachable once it dries
the joint will be there even if the surroundings break!!!!!!!

Fevicryl is good stuff, however, I am on the lookout for Fevicol Marine. It is supposed to be totally waterproof.
