IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES
•
There are three types of screws used in this kit:
Sheet metal screws are designated by
a number and a length. For example,
#6 x 3/4" [19mm]
Machine screws are designated by a
number, threads per inch, and a length.
For example 4-40 x 3/4" [19mm]
Socket Head Cap Screws (SHCS) are
designated by a number, threads per
inch, and a length. For example 4-40 x
3/4" [19mm]
• When you see the term
test fit
in the instructions, it means
that you should first position the part on the assembly
without using any glue
, and then slightly modify or
custom
fit
the part as necessary for the best fit.
•
Whenever the term
glue
is written you should rely upon
your experience to decide what type of glue to use. When
a specific type of adhesive works best for that step, the
instructions will make a recommendation.
•
Whenever just
epoxy
is specified you may use
either
30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy
or
6-minute epoxy. When
30-minute epoxy is specified it is
highly
recommended that
you use only 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy, because you
will need the working time and/or the additional strength.
•
Photos
and
sketches
are placed
before
the step they
refer to. Frequently you can study photos in following steps
to get another view of the same parts.

The Mister Mulligan EP is factory-covered with Jet White
Top Flite
®
MonoKote
®
film (TOPQ0204). Should repairs
ever be required, MonoKote can be patched with additional
MonoKote purchased separately. MonoKote is packaged in
six-foot rolls, but some hobby shops also sell it by the foot. If
only a small piece of MonoKote is needed for a minor patch,
perhaps a fellow modeler would give you some. MonoKote
is applied with a model airplane covering iron, but in an
emergency a regular iron could be used. A roll of MonoKote
includes full instructions for application.
