After looking at your video I have a question, what type of glue are you using to join pieces as fast as showed?

Gorgeous; way past my skills and patience too!

I used glue "88" of Ukrainian production, instruction: apply glue on both surfaces, wait about 10-15 minutes until the glue dries, squeeze the glued surfaces. Someone wrote that In the USA similar glue calls "Contact Cement"

Looks interesting Alex.  Love the Whimsy name tag.    Thank you for the video and the pattern.

Great piece and here in the UK I would guess the glue would be contact adhesive tempting to give it a go but boy 60 of them likkle things to cut then 60 of them likkle things to stick  but worth it for the end result may do in between others and go back leave go back as my patience levels are not too high

Got it, I suppose that, you have confirmed my thoughts, thanks

doesn't look difficult to cut but with my poor gluing skills, I do not think I will try it. it sure is interesting to look at though
