PREPARATION OF THE PARTS | |
| First, it is necessary to do the half-cutting along the scoring lines. Place the sheet with the printed face upwards on a cutting board and slightly cut in the cardboard about halfway of its thickness (use a ruler in order to do long, straight cuts). NB! Make the perforation through the entire depth of the cardboard. |  |
|
| Using scissors, roughly separate the parts one from another. |  |
|
| Cut out the parts along the contour. |  |

| Carefully remove the separate parts from the cardboard sheets. |  |

| Using stylus, knock out the pre-cut, but still remaining pieces of paper from the cutout windows. |  |

| Place the parts on a hard surface and fold along the half-cut lines in a 90-degree angle. Similarly prepare for gluing all parts. |  |

| GLUING Before gluing, check that the parts fit together well. |

| Pour a small amount of glue into the gluing container. Use a gluing tool to apply the glue to the cardboard. |  |

| In addition to the cardboard parts, which are supplied with the kits, you will need - | ||
FOR PRINTED MODELS: - white glue (A) - a model knife (B) - a ruler (C) - a pointed stylus (D) - small container for a glue (E) - gluing tool (F) - self-healing board for cutting (G) - scissors (H) - tweezers (I) - hard surface to work on (J) and patience |
 |
FOR PRE-CUT MODELS: - white glue (A) - a pointed stylus (D) - small container for a glue (E) - gluing tool (F) - tweezers (I) - hard surface to work on (J) and patience |
| The
parts should be prepared in the following order: pre-cutting >
cutting > folding > gluing. The assembly of all the parts is
illustrated in the instructions, which are included within the kits. |
