Maintenance

To preserve the quality and appearance of your wooden model:

Cleaning: Gently dust the model with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid using liquid cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the wood and finish.
Storage: Keep the model in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations. These conditions can cause wood warping, fading, or damage to adhesive bonds.
Handling: Handle the model with care, especially delicate parts like rigging, sails, and small decorative elements, to prevent accidental breakage.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions

Parts Not Fitting Securely:
Issue: Some pieces may feel loose or not fit perfectly into their designated slots.
Solution: Ensure all connection points are clean and free of any residual wood dust or burrs. Lightly sand edges if necessary for a smoother fit. For persistent looseness, a small amount of wood glue (not included) can be used for reinforcement, applied sparingly to the joint.
Fragile Pieces Breaking:
Issue: Thin wooden pieces may break during removal from the sheets or during assembly.
Solution: Exercise extreme care when detaching parts from the sheets, using a hobby knife for precision rather than forcing them. If a piece breaks, wood glue can often repair it effectively. Allow sufficient drying time.
Difficulty Identifying Parts:
Issue: Confusion over which piece corresponds to which step in the instructions.
Solution: Refer closely to the numbered diagrams in the instruction manual. Organize parts by sheet or number before starting assembly to streamline the process.
