usually ppl Pre-assemble means assemble EVERYTHING but dun snap everything 1st.. coz when u snap sure hard to take out d ma rite? tat's y they say, cut male pegs, make the hole bigger so that ltr u can take out again to spray/sand/watever u wan to do.. i've posted a link from fichtenfoo in tutorial , read it up.. really helps a lot |
