Just tried to glue some foam together to make some cicadas (an orange
and black cicada gurgler would be a killer in a couple of weeks).
Superglue didn't work, epoxy cracked, white glue gets wet, don't have
the patience for hotmelt glue. What do you all use?

I noticed that Jack Gartside is recommending getting the sticky foam sheets
(one side pre-glued). I've seen them in the craft stores. I don't tie the
double layer ones (yet) but I sometimes tie a small piece of white on top
when I'm tying off the front.

Another variation of the Gurgler foam, is some very heavy duty stuff
that a gentleman out here has been using and selling. I'm not exactly
sure what it is, but it's extremely durable, thick, and floats well.
Being it's so dense, it rides a bit lower in the water, and creates
quite a disturbance when you retrieve it. The foam is almost bulletproof.
