Assembly and Processing Tips
For gluing resin and metal parts (if present), the use of cyanoacrylate glue is recommended. Photo-etched parts can also be joined using soldering, which ensures a durable connection. Exercise particular caution when processing, cutting, and sanding resin prints, as they are more susceptible to mechanical damage than typical plastic parts. Using sharp modeling tools will ensure precision and minimize the risk of damage.
Suggested Oxygen Bottle Colors
Oxygen bottles used in USAAF aircraft during World War II were typically painted in military green shades, such as Olive Drab (e.g., FS34087) or Interior Green (e.g., FS34151). In some cases, black bottles were also encountered. For historical accuracy, it is recommended to consult the reference documentation for the specific aircraft model.
