I made seats the manual said to make at first. There were two types of materials. The brown ones were OK, but white ones had to be stained as the similar colour as brown ones. Red brown of Tamiya colour was quite similar to the colour of the brown board. I used diluted (about three times) Tamiya colour as stain. After staining the parts were scribed by a pencil to simulate joints.

マニュアルでは一番最初に作ることになっている椅子を作ることにした。部品は色違いの板に含まれてる。白っぽい板の方は色を付けなければならない。タミヤアクリルのレッドブラウンがちょうどいい色だったので、シンナーで3倍ほどに薄めてステイン代わりとした。その後、板の継ぎ目を表すために鉛筆で筋を引き、

The legs of the seats were metal parts and coloured in black. All seat parts before assembly.

そ椅子の足の金属部品は黒に塗っておく。これが組立前の椅子部品。

The parts of back mating to the legs seemed very week. So I assembled them carefully. Legs were temporarily fixed to the back and inserted to the floor for alignment. Then they were fixed by CA.

上に見えるように背もたれが足分品に嵌合するところがえらく細く折れそうなので、慎重に行う。足部品に黒く塗った真鍮線を通し、足に背もたれに押しこむ。床板に仮に押し込んで位置決めし、瞬接で固定した。

Seating face was attached.

これに座面を接着する。

Assembled seats.

組み上がった椅子。

Handles of the seats were made form brass wire included in the kit. The brass wire seemed coated by varnish.

付属の真鍮線から背もたれのハンドルと作る。この真鍮線はコーティングしてあるようだ。

All seats were finished. They will be varnished. I used round priers to bend the handles.

これで一応椅子は完成。後はクリアを塗って仕上げるだけ。ハンドルを曲げるには丸プライヤーを使用した。
