Tips for a smoother build

• Set up a clean, flat workspace and lay out pieces in the order shown in the instructions
• Check each piece’s orientation before connecting joints to avoid backtracking
• Handle small metal parts gently to prevent bending; use a soft cloth to wipe fingerprints
• After assembling, dust occasionally and place away from direct heat to preserve the finish

Care and maintenance

Keep the surface pristine with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners that could dull the finish, and consider a light, mineral-based polish if you notice micro-scratches over time.
