The pages on this web site document MY procedure and assembly of my Carden Edge 540I am by no means a professional or "master" builder and these procedures may not be the best methods for you.
Carden provides a nice construction guideline and color photos as an aid to building their kits.
I have chosen to build things in a little bit different order than they lay out in their manual
