Assembly Recommendations
For durable bonding of metal photo-etched parts to the model and to each other, it is recommended to use cyanoacrylate (CA) glue, also known as super glue. For more advanced modelers, metal parts can also be joined together using a soldering iron, which provides very strong and aesthetically pleasing joints. Before assembly, it is recommended to gently clean and, if necessary, bend the parts to the appropriate shape, according to the instruction manual or references.
Complementary Detailing Accessories
For a comprehensive detailing of the US TRACTOR CASE VAI model, it's worth considering enhancing the gauges with other precision modeling accessories. Various metal barrels, individual link tracks, realistic metal tow cables, and crew figures are available on the market, which will help create a fully detailed and dynamic representation of the vehicle.
