I wonder if it is not easier to put glue on the foam board before sliding the puzzle on to it. This way the puzzle will be glued to the foam and then you can do an extra glue layer on top
Think either works as long as there’s enough glue for it to be even and get in the cracks adequately
Does glue become transparent after drying? Or will there be residue left? I am bit worried about smudging my puzzle
Any glue will leave some residual as compared to how it originally looks. The gloss leaves a shiny finish. If you’re worried you could try just coating the back only and not doing the front. I am pretty sure that would be enough to hold it in place.
I like that pokemon puzzle. Where did you get it?
I believe it would have been Target or Walmart. I could not find it on either of their websites, but here is a link to it on Amazon (amzn.to/3KourN0).
@@AndrewRockCZcams thank you.
anyone know how to keep the board from warping when the glue dries? i run into this problem alot
I think the best option would be laying it flat in between flat boards of some form. Beyond that I think you could limit the glue quantity and it might evaporate less with less warping.
what's the thickness of the board you are using?
To be honest. Not really sure. It was the standard size poster board. Picked it up from Walmart. I found that after it dried it did warp significantly . So something sturdier similar to the back of a picture frame would probably be a better option. Let me know if you have any other questions.
how do you mount the final product?
Easiest way is to measure the dimensions and find a frame to put it in. The glass front highlights the puzzle very well. Otherwise, you could try to put some sort of mounting on the back but I would suspect it will be too heavy to support it effectively. Let me know if that helps.
@@AndrewRockCZcams I ended up using 3M command strips to mount to the wall. My puzzle was small enough to not be too heavy so this worked fine.
Square puzzles don't have a circumference.
Thanks for watching and the comment
