• 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, 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. We recommend
using low-temperature hot melt glue for construction, but
some silicone adhesives (Shoe Goo, Goop, etc.) also work
well. When using hot-melt glue, it is possible to
disassemble parts after construction. Simply heat your
glue gun, and run the tip along the glue joint without
squeezing new glue into the joint. The glue will soften and
you can pull the apart the joint.
Do not use standard CA
glue on this model as it will dissolve the structure.
• 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.
