BLOTZ B28-WW2-305 Assembly Instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the instructions for the BLOTZ Submarine B28-WW2 305 model. This document provides detailed guidance on assembling the stern section, using laser-cut pieces and glue. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about this model and the assembly process.
  • What type of glue is required for assembly?
    What tool is needed to remove sections from the sprue?
    What can be used to hold pieces in place while the glue dries?
28mm Submarine: Stern Section
B28-WW2-305
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 stern /
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.
Glue the long rectangle behind the horizontal holes.
Glue the assembly to the model.
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.
Take the hinge pieces.
Attach three to either side of the rudder.
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.
