IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES
When you see the term test fi t in the instructions,
it means that you should fi rst position the part on the
assembly without using any glue, then slightly modify
or custom fi t the part as necessary for the best fi t.
Whenever the term glue is written you should rely upon
your experience to decide what type of glue to use. When
a specifi c type of adhesive works best for that step, the
instructions will make a recommendation.
Whenever just epoxy is specifi ed you may use either
30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy or 6-minute epoxy. When
30-minute epoxy is specifi ed 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.
