Gluing pieces together
Since my material is clear, I cannot place super glue on the surface. Property of superglue is it bubbles or creates a fog when it drys. The right picture shows my practice on spare acrylic.
After practice and test on spare acrylic "zap-a-gap" medium superglue gave the best result. Also, instead of placing glue in the centre of surfaces, I decided to place glue on the joints edge so that fog can be erased if created.

Since I am using 3mm clear acrylic, slicings were done in rhino with 3mm thick.
The acrylic supplied from university was 900mm x 600mm therefore templet had to be fixed.
