  You find all of these supplies at Walmart.
  
  As far as an approach, for some games I've used existing plans (Castles of Burgundy, Descent), but others I haven't found plans or didn't like the plans others had.
  
  When creating my own plans I use the following process.
  
  
• Play the game a few times, determine what pieces are only used at setup and what pieces you need throughout the game. If there are pieces every player gets one of, or shares, etc.
  
• I group the pieces into logical sets based on the above conditions and try to visualize how they might fit in the box as a set of setup and in-game "trays"
  
• Then I cut a base out of my foam core the size of the bottom of the box. Warning, twice I've started my insert using the lid of the box and not the bottom and the pieces didn't fit!
  
• I layout my pieces on this base and decide how to sub-divide the base into the various "trays". Sometimes, like the player trays in this set I decide to make dual layer trays so I account for that.
  
• I then cut the base into bottoms for each tray.
  
• Cut sides to the right height based on the height of the box.
  
• With the sides cut I'll glue the sides to the base using the sewing pins to hold the pieces in place while the glue dries. Pins are like clamps for foam core.
  
• With that done I'll organize the pieces in each tray and create the necessary dividers. For cards and small tiles it's useful to leave gaps in the dividers so that you can get your fingers down into the tray when removing the pieces.
  
• Once that's done I make any upper level trays using the same process.
  
  Having good spacial awareness helps to visual how the components will fit. My insert for Agricola took forever to figure out how to fit the pieces in a useful way. That game is dense.

I've heard thisworks better as it dries less stiff

I just use [craft glue] (http://www.amazon.com/Aleenes-oz-Original-Tacky-Glue/dp/B00178KLEY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1344284128&sr=8-4&keywords=craft+glue), apply it to the bottom of the sprite, and set it onto a square piece of corkboard slightly larger than the sprite. I set something flat and heavy on top until the glue dries, and once it does, use an exacto knife to cut away excess cork.

The sidebar has some great info on tools and what to do. Get an exacto knife and plenty of blades, get a self healing cutting mat, get some cardstock to print onto for a sturdy model, get some Aleenes tacky glue. Print the model onto the cardstock and then carefully and slowly cut it out. Fold the tabs, glue with the tacky glue (only takes 30 seconds to a minute to attach firmly) and continue! Take your time and cut as accurately as possible in order to get the best result..

Another option could be Tacky Glue. I haven't used it like this for a stitch but I have used it to secure all my ends before turning a piece into a pillow. So I know it is safe for aida.

If you can get it shipped internationally you can find it on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Aleenes-oz-Original-Tacky-Glue/dp/B00178KLEY

Otherwise from what I understand you just want to avoid using something like superglue that dries hard and brittle. This stuff apparently dries a bit flexible.

Some people recommended plain white school glue diluted with water, but this Tacky Glue was what seemed to be the most popular.

Cheapest Glue for making pom-pom critters
Most expensive is Kitty shoes because cats nya

lots of people recommend this

I switched to this glue which dries fast enough that you only have to hold it on for 30 seconds or so before letting it sit (though don't bump it afterwards for another hour or so). Since I switched, I haven't needed to use pins at all.

I personally love Aleen's Tacky Glue, but Mod Podge would probably work as well. I don't recommend super glue since it can melt your foam! As for your board, I see a 20"x30" at Michael's which is what I usually get. And you can usually find easy coupons for Michael's as well!

1. OP mentioned that they're using 170gsm matte paper.
   I suspect that the model may already be in A4, since the creator (not OP) is from Hungary.
   
   
2. Recommending any size bottle of Aleene's Original Tacky Glue, but any sort of tacky glue will work. Wood glue also works, but it dries a light yellow.

I've been using this and it works pretty well

I've never had this issue, but it seems like the best idea would be to remove all the screws and lift the woofer out (no need to fully disconnect it) and apply glue all around the mounting surface, then put the woofer back in place and re-tighten the screws. Let it dry for a day before playing it again.

For the stripped screw you can try placing a rubber-band over it, then pushing the screwdriver into that to get a good grip. I'm not sure exactly what glue would be best; I used Aleene's Tacky Glue to repair my subwoofers port tube and it has worked well so far, I just happened to have it laying around, but someone else on here suggested it specifically for repairing a subwoofer surround. If you don't have any thick glue on-hand already, Aleene's seems like it would be a good choice.

I use a small paintbrush with this glue for most things. For the really tiny parts or where you can't hold them together (like putting the feet inside, if you do it at the end), I just use superglue; there's one that comes with a brush that's easier to use than the dropper.

I also completely cut off these extra little tabs. They seem like more work without any major benefit.

No, US. This is tacky glue.

Aleene's Tacky Glue ( http://www.amazon.com/ALEENES-15599-Purpose-Glue-8-Ounce/dp/B00178KLEY/ ) is great.
