Review on UGEARS Mechanical Wooden Monowheel Construction by Bryan Moon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Unique and fun model

Interesting project, lots of detail, fun to assemble. Part number 60 is a bit fragile, I broke one but it can be glued together and works fine. You will need to sand the bearing surfaces and all moving parts smooth. I use a good 320 grit sandpaper. Use lots of wax, I use a small candle for this. At first he didn't want to work very well, it took some effort to relax him. I ran the wheel on the table top by hand and worked with the gears a few times to loosen it, now it spins for quite a while. Beautifully designed and nicely cut, everything fits. Unique set. Ugears hasn't disappointed me yet.
