The construction of the kit starts with building the cab. This first photo shows the five parts that go into making the cab. I found that one of the front/rear parts were slightly warped. I used a pair of needlenose pliers and expanded the side. Various tricks and methods are needed to straighten out the parts. Most need to be bent so that they lay flat on a flat surface. I did all my work on a piece of 1/4"-thick glass to make sure everything is flat.

This photo better shows what I meant to say above. The vertical "legs" of this wall piece weren't straight. I bent them out and then checked with the rulers. Note that the metal ruler is perfectly straight, but the camera distorted it. I didn't catch that when I took the photo, otherwise I would have taken the photo again.

I glued two wall sections together. The side walls have grooves in them into which the end walls fit. I did my construction on the glass piece so that the bottoms of the pieces are even. The walls were glued together with superglue.

I then glued the other end wall to the assembly, followed by the last side wall. After the superglue had dried thoroughly, I re-enforced the joints by applying 5-minute epoxy to the inside joints. This is the method recommended by people who have built this kit. The other method is to use low-temperature solder, but I wasn't that brave! Note that I always apply the glue with a tooth pick.
