I think the error file should be submitted with the file, by the
author of the
work.
I was looking at the instruction for set 6877 and I had a couple
of questions.
1. STEP 9 has asubmodel with no movable parts. Should it be
inlined? I
think it should
2. STEP 9 has the top of a hinge placed and the windscreen which
goes on
it is placed in STEP 12. Should this be a submodel. I have mixed
feelings.
That's all for now I think. I agree with all the rules.
If I think of anything else I'll let you know.
