Who said balsa can’t bend!


It’s time to glue the plank to the frame!
I was a little worried about the rocker: will the balsa plank sustain the bending? Not that the plank were really thick (¼ inches) but they were really glued! The Gorilla Glue makes a bond stronger than the balsa itself, so my nightmares were full of shredded balsa and glue cracks… Surprisingly everything went smooth and easy. Despite the pretty good amount of pressure that it requires nothing cracked (thank you Windex).
