Covering Tools

A Top Flite ® or Coverite 21
iron with a protective covering sock will be necessary for
tightening any covering on the model that may have loosened
or formed wrinkles between the time of production and your
purchase. The Coverite 21
has a longer cord and a rounded, contoured shoe. A trim iron
is not as much of a necessity, but would still be very handy

small areas.

IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES

• There are two types of screws used in this kit:
Self-tapping screws are designated
by a number and a length. For example,
#6 x 3/4" [19mm].
Machine screws are designated by a
number, threads per inch, and a length.
For example, 4-40 x 3/4" [19mm].
Socket Head Cap Screws (SHCS) are
designated by a number, threads per
inch, and a length. For example, 4-40 x

• When you see the term test fi t in the instructions, it means
that you should fi rst position the part on the assembly
without using any glue, then slightly modify or custom fi t
the part as necessary for the best fi t.
• Whenever the term glue is written you should rely upon
your experience to decide what type of glue to use. When
a specifi c type of adhesive works best for that step, the
instructions will make a recommendation.
