Junk art

Do you do sculptures? I ask because I am looking forward to do a Transformers like robot made entirely out of junk. Used paper, old plastic bottle and more used paper ;) I was wondering hat type of adhesive or glue would be best to use for binding all of these materials together. I also wonder if candle wax could also be hard enough for it to be sturdy. Feedbacks please! :)

wow, so you are planning to make a robot out from used stuffs. I think you can use epoxy which is much stronger from ordinary glues. Its good for plastics, rubbers, and cloth i think. good luck on the project!

Thank you! I was just looking for ways that I can make something meaningful out of junk that I like to collect. I am virtually a GARBAGE COLLECTOR lol XD

I would guess that hot glue (a kind of wax) would work for some of them, if they aren't going to be exposed to extremes of hot or cold. If you are going to attach metal to metal then welding would be the best idea
