Step 1

1. Get the bottom section bottom template (14) and pin it to the 2mm balsa wood.
2. Draw around the template.
3. Take the pins out and remove the template.
4. Cut out the drawn shape.

Step 2

Repeat step one for thee following templates:

1. Bottom section bottom inner
2. Bottom section top
3. Bottom section top inner
4. Top section bottom
5. Top section top
6. Turret bottom
7. Turret Top
8. Front wheels
9. Back Wheels
10. Back
11. Front
12. Top back
13. Turret doors
14. Bottom section bottom

Step 3

1. Use balsa cement to stick the back (12) onto the bottom section bottom inner (1) so it stands up vertically at the back (glue it on top of the bottom section bottom inner not on the thin edge at the back)
2. Use balsa cement to glue bottom section top inner (3) onto the top of the back (12) use posts 23mm to support it
3. Glue the Front (13) on a 12mm post at the front.
4. Cut pieces of 1mm thick balsa wood so it is a bit bigger than one of the arches so it goes from the Bottom section top inner (3)to the Bottom section bottom inner (1),this is for the side of the tank.
5. Use balsa cement to glue the wood in place.
6. Pin the wood in until the glue has dried.
7. Repeat steps 4. , 5. and 6. for all the arches.
8. When this is done trim the balsa wood off where it is too big.

This should be what it looks like after step 3.
