Use the straw to act as the central support for your engine. Pop out the internal pieces and lay them out in the order shown below.
Roll up the compressor and use the tab to secure it. Then slide it carefully through the turbine support, glueing
the tabs down to hold it in place
Once the turbine support is attached glue the
Compressor to the Turbine.
Construct the turbine by rolling it up. Use the tabs of the turbine stator to keep the shape of the turbine.
Roll up the cone then glue the tab, but don’t stick it to the moveable vanes – or else it won’t turn. You should only attach it to the straw.
You should now have the engine’s internal parts constructed.
It’s time to add the all-important fan blades. Just pop them out and slot them into the nose cone as shown below.
Wrap the fancase around the moveable vanes and the turbine support. Make sure the fancase is the right way round, the end with the slots should be at the back of the engine.
