28mm Old West Front #1
B28-OW-400
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 two base pieces and the frame from the
sprue.
Glue the frame to the plank section, then glue the
other base section under it using the lugs to align
them.
Glue the rear plate into place.
While the assembly dries, place it against a rear
section to ensure it doesn’t tilt forwards.
Take the insert pieces from the sprue.
Glue these into the gaps in the framework.
Take the door and supports from the sprue.
Glue the lower support into place. Allow to dry.
Place the lower lug of the door into the lower support,
then sit the upper support onto the top lug before
gently easing it into place (see pic).
Apply some glue to the upper support and then slide
it completely into position.
The windows and sills.
Glue the sills into place at the bottom of the window
gaps.
Then glue the windows into place, along with the one
above the door.
Glue your desired sign and top bar in place.
The completed front.
