I hope this is not too silly of a question but.... What type of CA is good for building a T-Rex 500? Thin, Medium, or Thick?

Also the manual says I need oil. What type of oil is good? Will the 3 in 1 type be OK?

Have you watched Finless's videos on building the T-Rex 500? A lot of your questions will be answered there. Good stuf. :thumbup:

I just started them. Finless is a lifesaver. I was hoping someone knew which materials to use as it will take some time to go through all the vids and I wanted to order up everything at once. I'll just use medium and 3 in 1 unless anyone thinks this is a bad idea.

My rule of thumb for CA thickness is wherever there's a very tight fit between parts, I use thin. If there's a small gap, I use medium. I've never found a use for thick and doubt I ever will.
