IMPORTANT BUILDING NOTES
·
When you see the term test fit in the
instructions, it means that you should first
position the part on the assembly without using
any glue, then slightly modify or custom fit the
part as necessary for the best fit.
·
Whenever the term glue is written you should
rely upon your experience to decide what type
of glue to use. When a specific type of adhesive
works best for that step, the instructions will
make a recommendation.
·
Whenever just epoxy is specified you may use
either 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy or 6-
minute epoxy. When 30-minute epoxy is
specified it is highly recommended that you
use only 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy,
because you will need the working time and/or
the additional strength.
