Place the upper half of the torpedo 

10-4

 onto the lower half 

10-5

and gently press together. Have ready the torpedo tube assembly 

from kit 9.

Place the upper half of the torpedo 

10-4 

onto the lower section 

10-5

 and gently press both parts together and hold in place until 

the glue has dried.

Detach the two opposing propellers 

10-6-1

 and 

10-6-2

 from one of 

the frames 

10-6

. Connect these to form a propeller, using a shaft 

10-7

. Make a second, identical propeller in the same way.

Insert a torpedo into each tube 

9-1

 and 

9-2

 as shown above. If 

necessary, use fi ne sandpaper, or similar, to slightly reduce the size 

of the fi ns on the torpedo.

Repeat the process for the second torpedo: fi t the propeller 

10-6

into the lower section 

10-5

 and, as before, add glue to the pegs on 

the upper half 

10-4

.

Take one torpedo upper half 

10-4

 and one lower half 

10-5

. Insert a 

propeller 

10-6

 into the lower section 

10-5

, so that the shaft 

10-7

sits in the recess of the torpedo. Add a little glue to the three pegs 

along the length of the upper section 

10-4

 as well as to the two 

pegs near where the propeller sits (see arrows).
