6. Вирішення проблем

While assembling your model, you might encounter minor issues. Here are some common problems and their solutions:

• Частини, що не підходять:
  проблема: Parts do not align or fit together smoothly.
  рішення: Check for excess plastic (flash) on the edges of the parts. Use a hobby knife or file to carefully remove any obstructions. Ensure you are trying to join the correct parts as per the instructions.
• Visible Glue Marks:
  проблема: Glue residue is visible on the model surface.
  рішення: Use plastic model adhesive sparingly. If marks occur, allow the glue to fully dry. For non-painted surfaces, very gently scrape with a sharp hobby knife blade held almost flat, or use a fine-grit sanding stick. For painted surfaces, this may be difficult to correct without repainting.
• Warped Parts:
  проблема: A plastic part is slightly bent or warped.
  рішення: For minor warps, you can sometimes gently bend the part back into shape. For more significant warps, carefully heat the part with a hairdryer on a low setting (do not overheat or melt!) and then gently bend it into the correct shape while it cools.
