Step three: Sort and unpack:
After you are familiar with the kit, it’s time to get to work.
Unpack everything from the boxes, then group the car bodies
and sprues of the same parts together. Be sure to keep like-
numbered parts like car ends and sides together.
Group the parts together according to when they will be
needed in construction. All the sprues for the underbody in
one pile, roof parts in another, etc.
Put the stuff you won’t be using right away in open boxes
out on the workbench, but not in the construction zone. The
boxes the cars came in work great for this. I also use lids from
copy paper boxes to keep the parts organized while I build
the batch.
