You need medium CA, epoxy, a hobby knife with #11 blades, curved plastic-cutting scissors, a round file, 220 and 400-grit sandpaper, a sanding block, small paint brushes, model enamel paint, needle nose pliers, and tweezers.
Cut the parts from the master sheets while leaving raised edges for stiffness, lightly sand the edges smooth, and wash them with warm soapy water before painting.
First glue the painted seat to the top of the spacer on the floor, then glue the painted control stick into the center of the boot on the floor ahead of the seat.
