Review on Wood Trick Mystery Flower Wooden by Michael Glassburn

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Use your common sense when installing

Success. <Recommendations for buyers> Listen to the instructions when it comes to grinding and waxing the parts. Try to think ahead, understand the mechanism and check the movement of the gear piece by piece as you install it, especially before doing some steps that cannot be easily undone. This learning style is 85% like babysitting, friendly but not perfect. Better use your intelligence to fill the remaining 15%. No rush, the time spent will pay off. Polishing the edges or even staining (as I saw in the review) will make your work even better. By the way, they have some spare parts (although I haven't used them). I saw in the review that the surrounding bent parts can be brittle. I moistened them slightly before bending them. Not sure if this helped. Expect most connection points to be fairly tight. But it is better not to use brute force and risk breaking it. <Product Suggestions> Some gears require too much sand to finally spin freely. And the grinding is pretty uncomfortable (they have so many teeth). The two small emery papers are eventually completely worn out. The music on/off pin is too long and does not work as instructed. It took me a while to get it working. Terrible music beat lol

Pros

Cons
