Recommended Tools (Not always included):
- Scissors: For cutting paper elements or excess material.

- Add Details: Attach smaller decorative elements, furniture, and accessories. Pay close attention to the placement of stickers and paper cutouts.

6. Maintenance
To preserve the appearance and longevity of your miniature kit, follow these simple maintenance tips:
- Dusting: Regularly dust the model with a soft brush or a can of compressed air to remove accumulated dust from intricate areas.
- Cleaning: For stubborn dirt, gently wipe surfaces with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture, which can damage wooden or paper components.
- Storage: Store the model in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations, to prevent warping or fading of materials.
- Handling: Handle the assembled model with care, especially when moving it, to avoid dislodging small parts.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during assembly or with the finished product, consider the following common solutions:
- Parts Not Fitting: Some wooden pieces may require light sanding with the included sandpaper to fit perfectly. Do not force parts together, as this can cause breakage.
- Stickers Not Adhering: If stickers do not stick well, apply a small amount of craft glue to the back for better adhesion.
- Fragile Pieces Breaking: Small or thin pieces can be delicate. If a piece breaks, it can often be repaired using a strong, quick-drying glue. Allow sufficient drying time.
- Missing Parts: Double-check all packaging materials. If a part is genuinely missing, contact Rolife customer support with your model number and a description of the missing part.
