Setup, Compatibility & Care
Building the model requires a flat, well-lit workspace to keep the 197 parts organized. Since the pieces are laser-cut for a plug-in system, avoid using excessive force; if a part feels tight, use the provided sandpaper to gently smooth the edges. Store the finished model in a dry environment, as natural wood can warp in high humidity. To maintain the mechanical functionality, ensure the internal rubber bands remain free of dust and debris, and avoid over-winding the pull-back mechanism.
