Evergreen styrene products are easy to cut with a hobby knife or razor saw and can be painted with enamel or acrylic paints. I have had excellent results using Testors plastic model cement to bond styrene. It's important to note that EVEN numbered sizes of round tubing telescope into the next EVEN numbered size (evg426 will fit into evg428). The wall thickness of this styrene tubing is .027 (0,69mm).
