Description
São Tomé e Príncipe – Island Pack
This set includes the islands of São Tomé, Príncipe, and surrounding islets, modeled in 3D terrain with 1.5× vertical exaggeration to bring out the relief. All plates are oriented with north up. There is also a plate with name tags that can be cut and glued onto the islands.
Assembly Guide
- Print the islands and the name tag plate.
- Keep the plates oriented with north facing up.
- Cut out the name tags and glue them to the correct island using cyanoacrylate (super glue).
- You can display them in their geographic positions (Príncipe NE of São Tomé) or line them up for easier comparison.
