Version Status Consumable Cost Reusable Cost Implementation Time Waiting Time Notes
V3 - Two-Part Adhesive + Super Glue Proven £20.25 - 0.5 h 12 h Structural two-part adhesive for strength, plus super glue wicked into gaps to lock the edges.
V2 - Marine Adhesive Legacy £15.99 - 0.5 h 12 h Deprecated: marine adhesive is messy to handle; prefer V3 two-part plus super glue.
