The mating of the base to the pod takes lots of patience. In many places straight cuts on the base are glued to curved portions of the pod. Trial fitting and trimming are required. The dotted fold lines are very prominent. I wish they were printed off the edge of the parts, or at least designed with much lighter hues.

I had a problem with the pod door catching on the interior parts when opening. My fix was to add a fairing to the interior door (the gray part) from the edge of the interior rectangular part to the outer edge of the door.
