ROKR3D Wooden Puzzles-Model Building Kits-DIY Kits for Adults-Wooden Monocular Telescope Science Gifts Kits for Adults

The media could not be loaded. I love every puzzle from this company. I have purchased 6 so far. This one was fun to build like all of them. I do notice that every puzzle offered something a bit different than the last one, so it always stays interesting.It so neat how these puzzles come together. This is the 1st one though that I truly stayed "glue free". Sometimes I use glue to obtain sturdiness or sometimes to fortify some smaller pieces in their joints holes. NOTE: Do not use glue if you are not absolutely sure you are doing everything right and will not need to pull apart later. I have learned from my own mistakes.However, the monocle works great! Be sure to be very careful not to touch the lenses. They are plastic, but can be wiped off with a dry micro cloth if needed. It would be easy to get wood dust on the lenses. I tend to use a small Dremel to file some pieces down for an easier fit, but I didn't have to use it for this one.I highly recommend ROKR for 3D puzzles over other companies. As ROKR has better drawn out directions with clear and well defined graphics. Even the writing on the pieces are easy to read. They are sturdy and always come with some extra pieces for some that may easily break or get lost. I am very careful, but accidents happen.I made the video for my Mom so it's not great but you get the idea. You can also see a little collection of some of the others I have done in the background. I have ran out of space, so if ROKR could send me a build it yourself shelving unit to store thesein, that would be great! 😉.Have fun!!

Easy assembly pieces fit well looks good and seems sturdy would build again.

It's really a neat build. Really Kool u can look threw it and see things slightly magnified. I love these puzzles. They come with greal directions on assembly. And pretty easy to put together. Love 'em!

Top quality in every respect. Fit of parts is incredible. I enjoyed putting this together.

So pros and cons: the biggest downside to this is the fragility of the pieces. Think glorified popsicle stick art. Tons of tiny pieces to assemble and its frustratingly easy to get the wrong pieces in the wrong place. If you love challenging puzzles, have endless patience and a knack for assembly, you will love it. Pros: it does look exactly as pictured once (or if) you get it right. Pretty impressive overall, even if it tends to fall apart the way you would expect most school projects to. Got mine for astronomy class. Lightyears better than toilet paper & duct tape telescopes but took hours to put together and if this doesn’t get me an A+ for the project, I’m feeding it to the Prof later. Without ketchup

This was a gift for my 17 year old grandson. He said some parts of the instructions could be a little clearer. I’ve got him several of these wooden kits and he’s enjoyed putting them together and loves all of them. I will continue sending these to him. I’ve already picked which one to send next, the globe.

This puzzle was really fun to build! I can’t wait to try more kits.

Bought as a giftTook a little time to buildBut good project
