As I approach the end of my build, I am trying to figure out what to use for my handrails that go along the length of the spar deck. Keep in mind, my build is a modern great lakes freighter. At 1:200 scale these would obviously be extremely small, so using the photo etched brass are out of the question - they are just too fragile/small. I am going to likely go bigger scale for this. I ordered some HO scale brass handrail from BlueJacket, and these are really quite rigid/sturdy, and just have to be painted. However.... I am unsure of how I will attach it to the wood. Not sure how effective Gorilla Glue would be for this.

I would investigate laser cut cardboard handrails, but having never worked with it I don't know if that would be a viable option.
