Customer Comment about Coal Office & Staithes .pdf card kit

Vendor's Note: Whilst we cannot guarantee suitability of our 4 mm scale kits for other scales the more adventurous might like to try rescaling.

"The kit went together really nicely with no adjustments, I simply printed at 52% scaling and pasted onto cereal box card. I was able to build all the components including the gutters, not something I've attempted before. The only thing I felt the need to omit was the fancy upper window panes. The instructions were easy to follow, although the fancy ridge tiles were tricky to cut out. They really do make the model."
