This is my first assembling job. Can you guys help me with following?
On the instructions they have mentioned some Cement to glue plastic parts. Where can i get thsi cement in India?
Which is a good tool set for such assembly jobs i can get locally?
I intend to get Tamiya tool set later.
Thanks in advance,

Fevi Quick will act as your cement...available in any local shop. BE CAREFUL with it.

Why do you need a tool kit for a kit car?? get a plastic cutter (also available in any hardware store) and a craft knife. that's it.

Go for a local Cyano Adhesive, they are the best. Any hobby store or stationary store will have it. Model plane builders and Architetural model builders use that frequently. I am also using the same for my Revell kits, that I am bulding.

The good thing for these is teys have a tad slower setting time than Feviquick, which gives us good time to place the component correctly and also gives a good shelf life of the product. And is huge cost effective.

No, these are not available in Bangalore :). And not any where in India. You have to get them from "Phoren" i.e. Abroad

Guys TAMIYA Finally In India

Cool post some pics..i heard its quite a decent model...any news on the SLS?

Pics, 240Z and 350Z. No news on the New Mercs from Maisto. Hope to get the SLS and the SL AMGs before I leave, but seems highly unlikely.

Thanks for the appreciation. Decals as in logos or some design. I have to do flame decal on the doors as well. As of now just letting the paint to harden. Will do a clear after I remove the nast glue left over from the masking tape.
