When building a Balsa RC plane, I would sand the sheets of parts down to half the thickness before punching the parts out. Then put Purple, ultra thin cyanoacrylate along the grain end of the parts. The glue would wick through the pores in the wood coating the insides with glue. Then I sprayed the part with accelerator, triclorethyliene 111, to insure the glue set. This made it composite part that was both lighter and stronger than the original balsa.
