Making Loops

•  Put two loop halves together so that the pins at the
top of each loop half go into the proper holes, creating a
tight fitting seam between the two loop halves.
•  Holding the loop halves together, slide one loop joiner
over one end of the seam and the other loop joiner over
the other end of the seam. 

*IMPORTANT: Make all 8

Loops in this set before building the track.

Attaching bridges to large baseplates.

•  Attach the stacking bridge to the slots on the top of the
large base plate, by squeezing the bridge together and push-
ing the tabs into the slots at the top of the base plate.  The
bridge will snap into a locked position.

•  When connecting the bars and couplers,  make sure the
bars are pushed in as far as they can go.  Also, make sure
couplers are positioned as shown in each illustration.

Using Bars and Couplers

•  To attach track pieces to the built-in track joiners on
Baseplates and Large Joiners, slide the grooved underside
of the track over half of the built in track joiners, as shown.

Using Built-In Track Joiners on Baseplates
and Large Joiners

Building the Mountains

•  Fold one mountain along the score lines.
•  

Insert one bar into a coupler as shown.

•  Place the left side of the mountain into the groove of the
bar and slide the left center tab under the coupler.
•  Bend the mountain, and position the right center tab into
the adjoining hole in the coupler.
•  Slide the groove of another bar along the right side of the
mountain base.
• Slide two small joiners, with the flat sides facing down,
over the outside tabs so that the mountain stands up
straight.
•  Build the second mountain using two more bars, two
more small joiners, another coupler, and the remaining
mountain cut-out.

Score Lines

•  Attach Icicle Sheets to two of your completed loops to
make the "Ice Caves."  To do this, unhook one Loop Joiner,
and insert the icicle's tabs on either side of the locking pins.
Then replace the Loop Joiner to secure the icicle in place.

Remove one Loop
Joiner, then
replace it over top
the icicle tabs.
