BLOTZ B28-WW2-304 Assembly Instructions

  • Hello! I'm here to help you with the instructions for the Submarine B28-WW2-304 model from BLOTZ. I've reviewed the document, which includes step-by-step guidance on assembling the bow section using glue, and optional pegs or bands. The instructions cover how to construct various parts such as the main support, deck plate, and front section. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about this model assembly.
  • What is needed to stick sections together?
    Can sand paper be used during construction?
    What is the purpose of pegs or elastic bands?
    What is used to remove sections from the sprue?
    What should be done with short rectangle after removing of front section?
28mm Submarine: Bow Section
B28-WW2-304
Please read these instructions fully before starting construction.
PVA or equivalent glue will be required to stick sections together.
Sand paper can be used to gently clean any joints.
A sharp modelling knife will be required to remove sections from the sprue. Please use knives with due care and remember
to cut away from yourself at all times.
During the construction of this model, you may find it convenient to use pegs / elastic bands to hold pieces in place while
you allow glue to dry.
Remove the main supports plus the central bow /
cross beam and lower plate from the sprue as
shown above.
Glue the lower plate to the main support using the
holes/lugs provided, then attach both to the cross
beam.
Take the end support and beam...
..and attach them to the back of the main support
as shown.
Take the deck plate..
..and glue it into position.
Each front section is formed from the pieces
shown above. Remove the shorter rectangle (but
do not discard it)
Glue the long rectangle behind the horizontal holes.
Glue the assembly to the model.
Glue the short rectangle into the hole. Note it will
sit further back at one end.
The rounded portion is formed from the pieces
shown above.
Starting with the bottom one, glue each into
position.
The graduated pieces are shown (in order) above.
Starting from the left, glue each piece in turn so you
get a gradual reduction in the curvature. (see pic)
Glue the deck grating into position.
The finished model.
Linking the Components
The individual components can be attached together using the supplied
rectangular link pieces.
Hold the components upside down and slide the link over the lugs on the cross
beam of each section.
