Revainrating 3 out of 5

I FAILED THE FIRST TEST

I've wanted to try this hobby for a long time, so I was excited to try this set. PROS: - Detailed instructions in fluent English - Pretty much everything you need is included - A piece of wood for practice is included. Tightly closed. I'm assuming it's a safety device and it seems to be working because I can't open the case. You need needle nose pliers. It would be nice if they were included. Maybe this is a test. If I had thin nosed pliers I might be able to remove this little guard. There's a stand there. Apparently you have to stick it on a tile (obviously not included) to keep it from falling. Serious? - Contains three images: leopard, eagle and colorful fruit basket. All are extremely difficult for a first draft. While the directions are good, they're not okay. You're asked to heat up the iron long before you're told what to do with it. For example heat it up before putting the paper on etc. The practice wood that comes with it is very flimsy and doesn't look like the one you will actually be working with. This makes its usefulness somewhat limited. Conclusion: Seems to be a good kit. It would be nice if I actually opened the suitcase. Obviously there are ways this could be better.
