Billings Slo Mo Shun
« on: December 16, 2006, 03:24:49 pm »

Wonder if anyone can help with advice on the above kit. I have just opened the box and found that it contains no explicit written instructions. There is a book of line drawings and a book of basic modeling tips but nothing else.

Reading an article in Sept Model Boats the author Dave Abbott seems to imply that there should be an instruction manual, though this is denied by Billings at this time.

If anyone has built the kit or knows Dave Abbott and could ask the question I would be grateful. Even if the answer is no at least then I can get on and make it up as I go along.

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a Billings kit ;D
There are two build threads on this boat on this forum that might help.

Hi Colin

Have been in touch with Dave Abbott and he only had drawings - 'no written instructions.'

Use the suggested link and Dave's article and you should have sufficient information for your build.

Happy Xmas and successful building
