How to assemble the Race Headquarters
We will begin by building the inner walls and then add then work our
way upwards. We leave the stairs and hand rails until last as these
are the most delicate parts. We recommend super glue as this is
quick and makes a strong model.
To begin locate the lower floor. This has "MAGNETIC RACING"
etched on it. Place this on the workbench with the text facing
upwards. Now locate the two inner walls. These are identical to each
other. Apply some small drops of super glue on the lower edge and
push them into the slots. Use another square part of the kit to get
them perfectly vertical. Hold each in place until the glue holds them.
Next we add on the front inner wall. This can be recognized as it has
a large double width door and two windows with small windows. It is
important especially with large pieces in the to do a trial fit without
glue. The parts are generally very accurate, but depending on how
they are assembled may need a little gentle sanding to make them
easy to assemble. Once you are happy, apply small drops of super
glue on the mating faces and press the part home. Make sure it is
fully pressed down into the lower piece and against the wall edges.

Next we add on the rear inner wall. This has a single window and a
single width door. Note the window is on the left in the image below.
We have offset the slots, so it should be impossible to assemble this
incorrectly. Once again do a dry assembly first, remove the wall,
apply glue and reassemble. As before press the part down and up
against the centre walls until it dries.

Add on the two end walls. Make sure the windows are positioned as
shown. They should only fit one way. Apply glue and press the
corners together until the glue dries.

We now glue on the next floor to the underside. Before gluing, double
check that all the holes are free of laser cut debris. Pay particular
attention to the small square holes around the edge. If you don't do
this they may be difficult to remove once you have glued on the part.
There are etched lines on this part which align perfectly to the edges
of the other floor. When applying glue do this around the edges
inside the etched lines and also in the centre. do not go near the slots
as we do not want glue to seep into them. Press the model together
on a flat surface. If you want to work a little slower you can switch to
wood glue here and press the model together with a weight on the
top of the until the glue goes off. This can give you extra time to slide
the faces around a little to get them aligned more accurately.Pay
particular attention to the stair landing which sticks off the rear edge.
The better you get this, the easier the stairs will be to attach later.
Turn the model over and orientate it a shown in the image below.
Glue on the front wall. Once again use another square edged part of
the kit to ensure it is glued upright.

Next glue on an end wall. Note the position of the door. Apply glue
and push the part down into the floor. Hold the corner together as the
glue dries
