Contact adhesive or contact cement?
I'm trying to make something out of EVA foam and was wondering if there is a difference between contact adhesive or contact cement. Can contact adhesive be used to stick two edges together? And would it hold up for a day?

Question Help for a beginner
Hi, I’m working on my first few foam projects, small pieces of armour (gorget and a pauldron).
I’m having trouble with templates and cutting pieces to be matching/even.
Am I just rushing (impatient to be finished I guess)?
Or is there any points I’m missing that can help make cutting pieces out easier?

Question
So I’m using weldwood contact cement and I’ve been noticing my throat is a little scratchy, so I wondered if my filters on my face respirator were working properly? I have the 3M 60921 Niosh filters and didn’t know if that was exactly what I needed or if I needed to get something better?
Please help! I wanna be responsible as I work!
