pugil sticks

so, my 3 hours of careful gluing and wrapping has only served to demonstrate that elmer's glue requires ventilation to dry. trapped between pvc pipe and 3 inches of closed-cell foam is just not a well-ventilated area. wet elmer's glue actually acts more like a lubricant than an adhesive, so it's just want you don't want for holding your pugil stick together when you're trying to launch a vicious attack. next time it's going to be the double-sided industrial sticky tape all the way.
