STARTING TIPS

Parts can be more easily removed from the sheet using a pair of clippers.

A pair of tweezers or needle nose pliers are highly recommended during assembly. (More information about tools below)

Pliers for removing parts

Plan out and understand how the parts will come together. Folding any piece back and forth along a fold line more than 2 times will cause the piece to weaken and/or break. Be sure to use a gentle touch.

Measuring parts

Parts lock together using tabs and holes. Pay close attention to the ▲ and ▲ symbols:

▲ represents a tab that should be folded 90°.

▲ ▲ represents a tab that should be twisted 90°.
