28mm WWII Factory
Glue the front of the factory on to the 5x10 inch building base. We used
 a glue accelerator for our construction. it is Bob Smith Industries
INSTA-CURE+ and accelerator which can be bought form
 Hobby Town USA or most hobby shops will carry something similar.
It works fast so be careful if you are going this route.
28mm WWII Factory
Add the walls you wish, but be sure to glue inside the back of the front
wall as seen in the picture.
28mm WWII Factory
The next steps are just adding walls until you run out or satisfied with
your factory.
28mm WWII Factory
When building consider that you are going to be moving the walls around
for different layouts.
28mm WWII Factory
The furnace construction is 3 walls and the furnace opening, the "3 bricked"
area is the bottom of the furnace area and should be on the ground.
28mm WWII Factory
The ruined furnace is the same except you they will be ruined.
28mm WWII Factory
The chimney mounts are next...
28mm WWII Factory
Then you add the second stage to the complete chimney...
28mm WWII Factory
The ruined chimney base to the ruined furnace...
28mm WWII Factory
The final chimney to the piece in place...
28mm WWII Factory
Now for the furnace ruined pieces, you can place them any way you like.
28mm WWII Factory
Now that they have been glued in place, we wanted to add  some
fallen bricks on top of them for extra detail...
28mm WWII Factory
Here they are...
28mm WWII Factory
Plug in the opening i the back with the provided brick sections...
28mm WWII Factory
And here they are...
28mm WWII Factory
This is adding the "Bag-O-Rubble which will be covered later...
28mm WWII Factory
The walls have been added to our liking, note the many openings for enhanced game play!
28mm WWII Factory\
When building the factory we left an area for the furnace area to be placed.
28mm WWII Factory
Here is a better shot of that area.
28mm WWII Factory
Locate the 4 brackets items...
28mm WWII Factory
Glue them in this area of he factorys opening front and back to mount the
catwalk on to.
28mm WWII Factory
Measure off both cat walks for both sides...
28mm WWII Factory
Score the catwalk section and "snap" carefully. be sure you score it well
or you may snap off to much!
28mm WWII Factory
A perfect fit!
28mm WWII Factory
Next locate the catwalk guard rails and steps...
28mm WWII Factory
With a sharp blade score the thin film between the rails /  steps and "pop"
them right out. once again be careful to score deeply so the pop right out.
28mm WWII Factory
Glue the guard rails to the catwalks. Note: we used a tooth pick to add
one additional rail support just for detail.
28mm WWII Factory
There is it in place.
28mm WWII Factory
Next locate the support wall, these are not resin but hard board. these
are added support and keeps the model straight .And off course is for
mounting the roof. Save the window sheets for the painting later.
28mm WWII Factory
Simply glue it into place.
28mm WWII Factory
Once you glue the rubble into place, add some extra to the edges ...
28mm WWII Factory
Pour generous amounts of rubble on the area and let dry...
28mm WWII Factory
There you go...
28mm WWII Factory
continue until you are satisfied, you can glue bricks on top of the rubble
areas for more detail as we have done.
28mm WWII Factory
We wanted to add something extra so we added some cement blocks
and drilled holed in them and added wood poles to mount a snipers
nest to it...
28mm WWII Factory
And here is it, you can also do this also and add further detail, once again
take your time and enjoy.
28mm WWII Factory
Another shop of the sniper's nest.
28mm WWII Factory
The factory is ready to paint, you can add as much detail as you wish!
28mm WWII Factory
Note the pipes going up the wall, the small pipes are included for adding
piped rubble to your factory - extra detail!
28mm WWII Factory
This is going to paint up nice...
28mm WWII Factory
I really like the furnace area, lots of places to take cover!
Remember keep in mind that your factory is going to be re arranged so build your
walls according to this principal.
When adding rubble, keep playable so your models can stand on the rubble, you
can add a lot of rubble but then it will not be as playable.
Before you attempt construction be sure to study the pictures carefully, and try
different things. as you add sets to your factory each section will be like a single
diorama with detail and character.

Now it is time to:
