Tip:
The model can also be painted with wood paints (not included). However, it is important that the joints are not stuck together by dried paint.
Please note:
The assembly requires some manual skill, as the sometimes filigree components have to be put together with controlled force from time to time. If you act too carelessly or roughly, individual parts can be irreparably damaged. Here, as with other model building parts, «Look at the assembly instructions carefully, use less force, be more patient and proceed precisely».
Notes on the manufacturer:
EWA - Eco Wood Art designs unusual and creative construction kits with loving attention to detail and also produces them itself. The environmentally friendly, mechanical models, decorative puzzles and toys made from renewable birch wood are made of plywood panels. The respective plates are created using the laser cut process and some are also decorated. The individual parts can be easily separated from the plywood panels and assembled without the use of adhesives. The mechanical functions are realized with rubber bands (e.g. wind-up motors) or with gears and bring them to life with movements. If you want, you can even paint the objects with wood paint and make them even more individual.
Warning:
Not suitable for children under 3 years of age as small parts can be a choking hazard.
