Part of the construction was to fold an inflexible piece of brittle plastic along a line. Despite being very careful the law of physics applied and it of course fractured. (as per the photo) There is no way it can be invisibly repaired so it has ended in the bin as very little point in returning it The first kit was the garage / shop. It was completed without difficulty and prompted me to order a second kit which was the cinema. Although the box was sealed the contents were badly warped and had mould spores on the contents. I tried to clean it but it ended up in the bin. A bit of an expensive and frustrating experience all being told and I will not be purchasing further kits.
