I worked on an old kit building today. Age approaching 60 years -- built in high school. Card kit of an engine shed. Must have been assembled with some sort of hobby cement and its now pulling apart -- one side detached and a few other bits. Used the latest card glue and we'll see how long that lasts.
This building has been my sample at shows when people ask if cardboard can last witout warping -- it's been in 5 different basements over the years.
Also working on another that must have been dropped. The awnings over the front doors are banged up and loose. On that one the glue was stronger than the card.
