Excellent building experience! ( Big Rig ) I am half way through building the big rig. I found that if you pay close attention to detail & develope a careful technique for getting the peices popped out of the plywood sheets & for installing the peices, then you will have an enjoyable time building.I am impressed with the compexity of the big rig. How the pistons & gears work is fun to see.This is my first purchase from WoodTrick & I highly recommend them! I received my purchase quickly.

The tractor… The tractor was given to Ron as a Christmas gift. It arrived in a zillion little pieces that needed to be poked out of boards. The video from the internet was handy whenever the directions were confusing to him. One needs patience and I would not recommend this project for children. Start with some simpler piece. The assembly was exacting and filled with detail, but the wood was sturdy, and held up to lots of handling. The directions said it would take 8 hours to put together. He spent at least 40. It looks fantastic and for someone who is not into crafts, he really enjoyed putting it together. He has now ordered the mantel clock.

Amazing Design & Technology I’m working on my fourth model - built the Train as my first, built the Car Trailer, the Tank Trailer & will be starting the Big Rig. I’m amazed at the Design & technology that has gone into these models. The on-line instruction is invaluable & I rely on it for everything I build. I did notice that on-line build video instruction is not available for all models-example-the Mechanical Ferris Wheel. Wish it was available. I love Wood Trick models and have convinced friends to give Wood Trick models a try. Lou Cocco

I built many wooden adult puzzles and… I built many wooden adult puzzles and have never been disappointed and frustrated building one except this one.I bought the big rig. Instructions are brutal to follow, part break all the time I broke the mount 4 times. Had to take it all apart to repair. Toothpick don’t fit, I never had sand down my toothpicks before. You have no where to grab to try and put a hard piece in. You push hard and you break something. And the door’s well have fun putting those in. I buy this model to have a nice relaxing time and enjoy building them. This one literally had be pee off. It almost went in the garbage. And set you laser beam so that it cuts through the wood. You have to clean most part’s because chunks of wood stays attached. If you build this model be ready to be frustrated, be ready to take one step forward and 3 steps back. I think I’m going to stick with Ugear they have consumer in mind. I did break one part in Ugear) my own fault) and I had a replacement part send to me free and quickly. Sorry wood trick you better take a better look at your product. I’m once bitten twice shy.

Not quite as expected but very nice.... More difficult to get pieces to fit together than expected. Good instructions that are easily understandable but getting pieces in place harder than expected for teen without help .... which takes away the experience of "doing myself"
