Nice products

Firstly good point - It has everything that is required ! Even cutter and glue ! This is best part as it frustrates when we purchase kit and had to purchase other things one by one. Its relatively easy but needs little patience , requires around 3 hours or so it make , looks nice after making it One negative is : its bit small , it should have been little larger.

This is my first CityBuilder kit. It builds into a very nice looking little Ice Cream Shoppe. The instructions say to add the front window and the inside back wall after the building has been erected, but, I took the liberty to install them, and the side windows, while the four sides were laying flat on the work bench. That way I could use weights to hold everything down as the glue set. A set of clamps and some weights with flat bottoms are a big help in construction. One little hint to pass on. Do not try to bend the clear window piece that covers the freezer by hand. If you you do you will probably get white stress streaks clouding up the clear. What I did was, I heated my oven to about 225 degrees Farh. I then draped the clear window piece over the handle of a wooden spoon. I kept a very close eye on it till it gently formed around the spoon handle then took it out and let it cool. I'm sure you may have a better way to do the same thing. But, what a big help this was. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

Size is small
