Thought I would offer a hand here, I am and have built many GPM Card kits, there are ways to translate, but the way it translates, leaves too me much to be desired. In other words, the sentence sometimes does not make any sense. So with that said, I study all drawings and there is a format f/sizes of card, wire and anyother noted detail, study them closely. Follow the drawings to the letter and take your time and before you know it, a completed project is before you.
I just received a order from GPM and a future project will be the Graf Spee w/all the goodies. Good luck and I will be watching for your build.
May I make a suggestion as well, go with a much easier kit and as you progress thru the builds, you will not need written instructions to build. Hope this has helped.
