5 stars out of 5star star star star star Cuckoo Cuckoo
I recently build this DIY cuckoo clock and overall it is an enjoyable project. The kit arrived will package, everything is label. You need a tweezer the screws are small. The assembly took me two days because of my work schedule and of course my children. Once assembled, the clock looks fantastic-simple, modern, and surprisingly sturdy. The ticking is quiet, and so far it has been keeping accurate time. I especially liked that the kit didn't require specialized tools beyond a small screwdriver and tweezer. Overall, I'd recommend this DIY clock to hobbyists or anyone looking for a relaxing weekend craft. It's rewarding, looks great on a desk, and makes a nice handmade gift.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Mini Magical Fun!
I ordered the 3D Mini Magical Creatures set to do with my 16 years old cousin. She built the unicorn and I build the fire-breathing dragon. The instructional video made it easy to figure out and the materials are high quality. It was a pretty quick project resulting in two super cute magical creatures. We both agreed that we want to do more of these and enjoyed looking through the brochure showing over 100 other 3D creatures to build.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Expertly crafted kit
This DIY model kit is the best example of cabinet-maker quality and detail. Over the years I have assembled numerous small-scale model kits of all types - cars, boats, figures as well as comples lego sets. This bookstore kit was perfectly engineered parts that were precisely cut and fit together seamlessly. The instructions were spot on and provided exact diagrams. Each individual piece was well-marked and easy to handle. The finished product was absolutely stunning with amazing detail. It looks great on my bookshelf especially when the incorporated light is switched on. I am looking forward to building another of these lots and would like to build all of them in the series. Kudos to the people in this company who engineer and produce the product.

Bought these for my mother in law and she loves them. She's very into small little building projects (like legos and such) and this was a great addition to her repertoire.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Very Well Designed Kit
This is a well thought out kit. The materials provided are quality, as are the instructions. The pieces are TINY, so if you do not work well with small items, this is not a kit for you. If you love detail and layers in your projects, you will really enjoy this project. Everything is well packaged, labeled, and stepped out in a logical order so if you follow the instructions you will have a wonderful final product. I am going to use it as part of my spring decor.

5 stars out of 5star star star star star Relaxing and Fun!
This set of 2 bonsai kits were the perfect project to work on as a team! These can be worked on together with a friend, coworker or spouse. Each has their own bonsai to build. They are challenging yet fun and, more importantly, the finished products can be displayed anywhere. I chose to keep mine in my personal library, they are quite the conversation piece! My friend and I had fun piecing them together while gossiping. She finished hers first then helped me with mine. Strongly recommend!
