Wooden model kits

 During Lockdown 2020, decided to have a look at this type of modeling.

.........................................................................

Airship.

Nice build but very fiddly, needed tweezers,long nails and a bit of glue and a lot of patience!

Scenes of Jules Verne.

Not much sanding needed.

Together.

..............................................................

Steampunk Clock.

Only small but still a tricky build, only slight sanding needed.

Turning the cogs at the bottom of the clock turns all the wheels and fingers of the clock.

........................................................................

ROKR. Heavy Truck.

Cab Detail.

Opening doors.

Showing Scale.

Front view.

Side view.

........................................................................

Big trailer with moving floor and opening doors.

Bigger and pieces thicker, good idea with the cocktail sticks instead of having to shape pieces so small. 

Floor moves out.

Quite big.

Too big for the truck I'd built last week.

Nice detail on the rear doors.

......................................................................

Model Carousel.

Eight Horses that all twirl round and up and down.

.................................................................

Friend Jean bought for my Birthday.

Very good instructions

Amazing how the lazar cuts are so precise.

The wheel.

Centre pivot. 

First chair of 12!.

Base fitted.

Bench and lamppost fitted.

Nice kit started me off again.

..............................................

Birthday present off Jaquie.

........................................................

This one was very tricky as the instructions were only as shown below.

Sounds easy number 1 goes to number 1!.

But as you go further into the build it gets harder and harder having to get 145 pieces into such a small space.

At £7.50 from Amazon still good value for money, takes a long time pondering where pieces go and how to get them in!.

..............................................................

This was a three model pack bought off Amazon.

Finished them off quite easy really, dust collectors so won't be keeping them, will keep me warm for a couple of minutes on the fire! HaHa.

 The Butterfly.

Bird on a perch.

The Swan.

.....................................

Ugears Windstorm Dragon.

What's in the box?.

................................................

Model Treasure box.

What's in the box, 5 boards of parts and the instructions.

Need two pair of hands at this point.

5 stages to open it and 5 to close it again

....................................................................

Ugears Mechanical Aquarium.

What's in the box?.

.......................................................

Looked interesting but was a bit monotonous with all those parts done time and time again, still good value for money. 

What's in the box?.

Nearly there.

Finished with one of the tunes logged in!.

..............................................

Done another Owl for my collection as I'd given the other one away!.

Was still difficult doing it the second time!.

.......................................

This was a nice build though tricky in parts.

What's in the box?

.............................................

Realised early on in the build it was never going to walk but enjoyed the build anyway and it will only ever be on display.

Who would ever think you could have wooden ball races!.

....................................................

Musical Ferris wheel.

......................................................

....................................................

Musical Roundabout.

.............................................

Walking spider.

Didn't work though!.

..............................................

 Watch this space for the next build.
