Similar Caboose Kit

It isn't by Ambroid, but the kit era and principles are the same (great fun by the way):

Ambroid experienc

Yes I have  built numerous Ambroid and other wood kits.They require a lot of cutting. They take time as any craftsman kit  does. They were originally supposed to be built with Ambroid cement, I use white glue.You just have to be careful about warping. Use weights and Clamps with large pieces..One added hint, use brass wire soldered for any end handrails,not steel glued.     .

Dive in and go for it!

This was the first or second craftsman kit that I assembled as a teenager more than 50 years ago. It was straightforward - no hidden land mines - and I managed to build a credible model. The old Ambroid kit models look pretty good, even today. Dive in and go for it!

Ambroid Kits

Ambroid kits are very good, I have built many of the HO and O kits over the years. I have not built this one but I am working on the Great Norhtern caboose and the Celotex all door boxcar. I recommend reading the directions, take your time, keep things square. I always used Scalecoat sanding sealer on them before painting, it gives a very nice finish. I had always used Ambroid cement but am on my last tube. I had asked a question here about Ambroid cement and got some recommendations on replacements, you might want to check it. Good luck with the kit, post some pictures of it.
