    I'm using 110lb card stock, but I think my problem was mostly gluing way too fast and not matching the numbers perfectly together, and also since its my very first thing i've done in pepakura, I didnt expect it to be perfect. Also, I'm using Elmers glue, should I be using a low temp glue gun?

    Do I need to do any special printing options if i'm using 8 1/2'' x 11'' card stock? When I printed the pep i used the defaults on the pep program, which was letter paper size. If not, what settings do I use for the helmet?

    Question: Is there an easier way to cut pepakura lines than spending 45min using an X-acto knife to cut out a piece this small? Or is this normal?
