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.
Take the five long support struts and the nose section
from the sprue.
Attach the support strut to the rear of the nose
section as shown above. Use the separate
octagonal ring to help position them.
Glue the nozzle plate into position.
The main engine nozzle is formed from the
pieces shown above.
Glue the two V shapes together.
Ignore the three largest rings for the moment
and slide the next one into position. There is a
notch inside each ring to help align it.
Add the next three rings.
Glue this to the smaller octagonal piece.
