Assembling Many Parts to Make a Larger Model
#1
One of the neat things about an SLA printer is the fidelity with which one can create parts that look a lot like they were injection molded.

However, the small volume frequently means that larger parts that would normally be one piece must be subdivided.

It's presumed that assembling larger parts into the whole would be done with some form of CA.  Small gaps would be filled with CA gap filling glue, or perhaps CA kicked by baking soda.

But what of larger parts?  Contouring, perhaps, for blending parts together.  Does anyone have experience and what they would recommend as a modeling putty that will stick to SLA resin?

There's this model I've been designing for many years that I expect will slowly emerge from my vat over the next months.  It's been a long enough wait!
