Review on Wood Trick Wooden Puzzle ๐Ÿงฉ for Adults: Brain-Teasing Entertainment for Sophisticated Minds by Patrick Gibb

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product. Take your time, it's worth it.

I bought a Mad Buggy. This project took a total of 16 hours. The parts fit together very closely. I wish I had a little more finger strength, but in the end I found that sanding each surface where they fit together made the parts fit easier. I used 120 grit and never had a problem with blending. Parts are strong but still fragile. Sounds contradictory, I know. It's a soft wood, similar to balsa, but pressed together in three thick layers. I was a little relieved at how well they popped out of sheet number 70 and broke one. I was able to fix it with glue. And when I was almost done, I found that there was a sheet with some spare parts for that very reason. The instructions were detailed pictures which I found easy for the most part. I had to think a little bit about the circuit and was very happy when it worked when I was done. I would not recommend this for younger children due to the small parts, complex mechanisms and patience required. Although a teenager looking for a challenge will probably enjoy it. I will buy more of these. The seller sent the goods quickly as promised and will buy from them again.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
