>>94379 Glueing two pieces of paper together isn't always a very good solution. If you do, make sure to apply glue to the WHOLE surface of the sheet: if you miss any spots, then maybe it's precisely that spot where a part goes... But cutting through paper+glue really increases the speed of which your blade gets dull. And some glues turn really hard, and then if you have glued two sheets together, and you try to bend the paper, the glue is brittle and cracks. But this really depends on the kind of glue you're using of course. I don't think you should be using that kind of glue anyway for papercraft... For the best results, you should just try out what works best for you. Regular printer paper IS really thin for papercraft, especially if it's fully textured: if you ever tried printing a photo on regular paper, you'll know how soft the paper gets from the ink... Regular paper is cheaper though, and if you don't want to wait to get cardstock (any shop that sells regular paper can get cardstock for you as well, really they can) it's the alternative you have. And of course, if glueing two sheets together gets you the good results you're happy with, then please do forget all I said! ;^>
