Ugears Mechanical Flower 3D Puzzle - Moving Flower with Jewelry Storage 3D Wooden Puzzles for Adults - DIY Wood Model Kit Adult Craft Model Building Kits for Adults Gifts for Mothers Day - 101 Pcs

My husband bought me this for Christmas and it's soooooo cool. If you don't like the ballerina they give you an alternative center piece (I'm going to put something inside it idk what yet) it's made of lasor cut plywood......I broke a few pieces but quite a few of the really small pieces had an extra just incase so I it ended up fine. I broke one of the main arms but a little wood glue and one of those black paper clips fixed it no problem (the super zoomed in picture is the repair) As you would expect it's definitely too complicated for children.

I have done 5+ of these projects; the 'more complicated' ones with hundreds of parts. This one I got for my kid who doesnt have the same patience as I do. It was a disaster. The project was abandoned. Honestly, it does take a lot of careful thumb strength to push the toothpicks into place. Not for children.

The media could not be loaded.  I have built several 3D puzzle kits. Some out of metal and some out of wood. This model was one my wife asked me to build for her. I mentioned that it would be fun to put some color on it. I had to assemble some parts early to see where I could color it. Then I used oil paint pens to do the colors. I also used a white spray paint as a base on some parts and then colored them. It does take patience to put together. Pressing the pieces out of the wood should be done slowly and evenly. The gear box part with all the gears also takes a good eye and some light sandpaper to make sure all edges of the gears are smooth. Use a light touch when sanding. The instructions are pictures and could use a few more detailed drawings.

This was my first time doing a 3d wood puzzle, so perhaps I messed it up as a beginner. Everything came together, but the directions were a bit unclear. I had to disassemble and reassemble several times. But no matter how many times I redid this, and how much wax I used, the flower does not open and close all the way, only partway. It is still a beautiful piece and I'm proud to have completed it, even though it doesn't completely work. You definitely need some tools for this; it comes with wax and sand paper, but you definitely need a wood cutting tool, and pliers are helpful due to the fragility of the pieces. I had to shave off a little here and there to get some of the pieces to fit. Sometimes I was afraid that I was going to break the whole thing, trying to put some parts in. It definitely took longer than advertised and was more challenging (not so easy to assemble) than expected, but I do like the complete piece, partially working gears and all. It is also rather overpriced.

I love the mechanical beauty of this model as it opens and closes. I decided before building to stain (using stain markers) and clear coat the pieces. I am happy with the result. To make the model more mechanically sturdy I used metal rod (see picture) instead of the wooden dowels and I greased the gears as the model was reluctant to turn smoothly.

The finished product is really pretty!! And I thoroughly enjoyed building it! The only problem is that as I was taking the pieces out of the plywood sheet almost all of them very nearly broke. If you've done one of these, you know that little tiny nubbin (no idea what else to call it) that is still attached to the sheet. It's cut all the way around except those little nubbins. Well on this one that little tiny nubbin wasn't so little and tiny. On some pieces it was quite large. I got them all out by cutting them loose with an exacto knife but still.... Anyway other than that one thing, this is one of my favorite pieces that I've done.

The instructions were very easy to follow but I couldn't get the gears to work it's probably in the issue but I looked it up and I couldn't get it to work

This was the first wood model I've built. It was fun, not recommend for kids since the wood can break easily. The instructions wouls not be clear if you are a person who struggles with instructions. For my engineering mind, it was fine. The extra pieces helped! I broke a few lol

L'articolo è bello ma come tutti gli articoli tagliati al laser si fa fatica a far coincidere i pezzi (già dai primi sostegni che non entreno nei fori perchè troppo stretti e si è costretti a ripassarli tutti).Do quattro stelle perchè, nonostante ritengo che il prezzo sia buono per l'idea del manufatto, per quanto sei costretto ad intervenire sui pezzi lo ritengo elevato. Teniamo comunque conto che se uno ha la manualità e le attrezzature l'oggetto da la sua soddisfazione da hobbista.Integro la recensione per chiarire che finito l'oggetto è venuto bello e funzionante; vorrei specificare che le limature che sono state necessarie superano un po' i limiti dell'hobbismo spicciolo ma non sono difficili. Mantengo le 4 stelle per il costo che ritengo un po' elevato anche se non esagerato

Arrived spot on time. Not opened the kit yet. Need to have plenty of quiet time to construct this beauty

It was my first foray into wooden puzzles and all it did was make me wanna do more. I really love this puzzle

Ho apprezzato le illustrazioni chiare dei passaggi per costruire il prodotto, tuttavia consiglio vivamente l’acquisto a chi ha buona manualità, in quanto alcuni pezzi sono difficili da incastrare e richiedono una buona pressione nel farlo. Ad ogni modo ci sono alcuni pezzi in più, messi apposta dalla casa costruttrice da utilizzare in caso di rottura nelle fasi di montaggio.

Das "Holz-Puzzle" habe ich mir und meinem Freund zu Weihnachten geholt, damit wir etwas zusammen basteln können.Schnell hat sich herausgestellt, dass die "Puzzle" eher was für eine Person sind, da nahezu jedes Teil auf dem vorherigen aufbaut.Die Teile befinden sich in einem vorgestanzten Holzbrett und sind sehr leicht "herauszubrechen". Für sehr kleine Teile, die schnell brechen, sind größtenteils mehrere Ersatzteile in dem Bausatz vorhanden.Zum zusammenstecken ist an einigen benannten Stellen Wachs von Nöten, was bei diesem Bausatz auch enthalten war - bei einem weiteren Bausatz fehlte das Wachs, aber Kerzen hat man ja meist zu Hause, die bringen es auch.- Hier kann ich empfehlen eine kleine Geburtstagskerze zu verwenden, da diese sehr dünn und klein ist und somit an die meisten Stellen herankommt.Die Holzoptik ist wunderschön und auch der Geruch überzeugt."Die Blume" lässt sich über ein Zahnrad drehen und somit die Blütenblätter auf- oder zufächern. Die Ballerina dreht sich ebenso.Das erste Mal drehen ging noch etwas schwerläufig, beim zweiten Mal ging es dann aber wie geschmiert.Nachdem wir zwei Puzzle gepuzzelt hatten, wurden zwei neue bestellt. Bin gespannt, wann wir alle Bausätze durchprobiert haben. :)Somit nur zu Empfehlen!!
