rspotteck Posted March 5, 2014 #1 Posted March 5, 2014 I am having difficulty understanding some of the instructions this is my first attempt at a wooden model it says to use wedges to fill in where the spaces are. am I cutting these wedges and making them fit. it 's not very clear in the instructions to me anyhow. thanks!
mtaylor Posted March 6, 2014 #2 Posted March 6, 2014 Richie, If no one else has said it.... open a build log. Overall, it will be the best way to get help and encouragement and make some friends along the way. It really is the best tool in the toolbox. As for your query... can you post a pic or two?

mtaylor Posted March 6, 2014 #4 Posted March 6, 2014 Richie, If you go here: http://modelshipworld.com/ you'll see various forums/sections, etc. Down a bit are the "Member Build Logs". What you'll want for your kit is in this section: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/forum/10-kit-build-logs-in-progress/ I suggest you read the pinned topic and look over the logs to get an idea of how they're done.
