AMT Star Trek U.S.S. ENTERPRISE - User Manual

ASSEMBLY
1.
READ THIS BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Look over this instruction sheet carefully before you
begin building. Follow the assembly instructions and
“test fit” the parts without cementing. This will
familiarize you with the location of parts.
AMT kits are molded from the finest high-impact
styrene plastic. Use only paint and cement made for
styrene. Trim excess plastic from parts before joining.
Use just enough cement to join parts, and be careful
not to smear cement on exposed surfaces.
Built according to the instructions on this sheet you
should have no trouble assembling your kit. Each part is
identified by a part number (20). FOLLOW THE STEP
NUMBERS (in black circles - ) for order of assembly.
