All the raised "tape lines" in this case KH is not the only one to do it but all the raised ziggy zag lines down stand up and proud. It's freaking ridiculous.And I thought I was in the clear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What rot.
I tackled the vertical stabs, I shake my head!
Exhibit 1..................
First I had to sand of heaps of under surface area of the insert.
It was just too thick and sat proud of the other base piece.
I also cut the pins and post holes, they are really not needed.
The insert is captured all round, and they re too high and would
not allow the insert to sit flush!!!! WT??????
I tapered the edges, just because!

So after all that I used the metal clamps to keep the insert from dropping in.
After clamping I used Tamiya thin cement and used the brush from the bottle
to attach most all the way round. I removed the clamps and did the same where they were.
You can see the fit tht brought all this on!!!!! Now on to the next PROBLEM area, Where?
I do not know yet!

All those Ziggy Zaggy lines Are raised!!!All the raised "tape lines" in this case KH is not the only one to do it but all the raised ziggy zag lines down stand up and proud. It's freaking ridiculous.
Not raised to the level depicted but whateverAll those Ziggy Zaggy lines Are raised!!!
But Not the panels!!!! as described....!
As I am finding, this is KittyHawk "in the beginning" so it wasn't to be expected, but "was to be expected" if That makes any sense. So many flaws a fellow IPMS member who does a lot of Build Reviews, and did a fine one for the MENG F-35A which is on the www, binned his KH F-35B even after getting up to the point of painting. Which leads me to believe I should do the same...... but, nah....yeah! I have no deadline and am DETERMINED!!!!!Not raised to the level depicted but whatever
It's probably the KH molds. Kinetic ir trumpeter bought their molds when they folded so wait fir it and read the reviews
