No, it doesn't make it wavy. Regular Elmer's glue WILL do that, but I found that the glue stick won't.
Some tips, though:
1. Get 100% even coverage of the glue.
2. Glue the pieces *BEFORE* trimming them to final shape. It makes handling them easier.
3. Place the glued pieces under some heavy, even pressure. I use my copies of "Hitler's U-Boat War", volume 1 + 2
.
4. The pieces will still 'warp'. They will be like a shallow 'Pringles' chip. That's OK, you can straighten them by hand. Once you have them all straightened, then you can assemble them.
I'll have to look into getting a circle cutter.
