Review on πŸ”­ ROKR Wooden Telescope Tripod Puzzles by Chris Hamim

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fun and interesting build, cool telescope when you're done.

I regularly collect these wooden puzzles, and there are many options. This telescope is my second ROKR puzzle and now ROKR is by far my favorite brand. The important parts of these puzzles are the instructions, the quality of the pieces, and the look/features of the final model. The ROKR puzzle guide is really great. They are very detailed and have clear instructions for everything, even which side of the part should face which direction. Even the tricky parts of a build are more fun when you know you're doing it right. The quality of detail is another benefit of ROKR puzzles. Laser cutting wooden parts is very precise, making it easy to remove parts without chipping or breaking. ROKR includes replacement parts for many of the more fragile parts, and I didn't have to use replacement parts on this telescope. Finally the looks and features; There they throw him out of the park. These puzzles, including this telescope, are full of moving parts and fun materials. It has a "leather" sleeve around part of the telescope tube, a brass screw-on plate, a chain, and of course the telescope lenses. All of this contributes to a fun build and a beautiful display when you're done. .
