🚚 UGEARS Wooden Model Truck with Propulsion Review

My son who has a hard time finding gifts loves this! He didn't get a chance to assemble it because he's been away for a long time, but he's looking forward to assembling it with his daughter when they get home! I love the idea of these gifts. hard to decide where to start! I'll update my review once he's had a chance to put it together! In the meantime, it's just a pleasure to find such a unique gift!

Really enjoyed building this set, I've learned what to look out for from previous sets. If you're buying this as a gift for first-time builders, take a step back and opt for something simpler. You need experience with less complex kits ie broken parts etc. There are multiple tabs in some of the nodes of this windmill kit which will frustrate you to no end if this is your first time and you break something. It takes experience and patience. Make a kit like this for 3 or 4, buy and gain some…

Great addition from UGEARS - there are several other UGEARS offerings that I like. Remember to follow the instructions EXACTLY - they may be toys but they are very precise toys that will NOT allow for careless installation. UGEARS manufactures ALL of its offerings. Constructed from very high quality plywood and computer laser cut to very tight tolerances - tolerances so precise that one piece will fit snugly with small holes to match or mate with another piece using the toothpicks provided - if

This bike does not have 5 stars due to extremely long build times and excessive material stress on the rear wheels. (It was a bit of an exaggeration.) Being used to making these models, the assembly went very slowly to everything being cut, sanded, waxed and so on. Sometimes assembly took a whole day. Now I have an accessory set under my magnifying glass. The fire ladder is the most interesting in this group. The hard work in each step of assembling the main truck pays off when I realize that…

This is my favorite. I'm just finishing this. I have already made several others including a horse and jewelry boxes. I love how obvious it is to improve and refine the truck from its original design. I see improvements like the swivel seat. The model assembly should not necessarily be a montage. I spent a lot of time grinding and waxing. I have two types of wax, one of which smells like leather. There are many extra parts to replace parts that I break in a hurry. I break toothpicks if I'm not…

Neither Rome nor my UGM-11 were built in one day. I filled out about a page of assembly instructions a day. And yes, pictures say more than a thousand words. The fit of the parts is perfect. And the quality of the material is great! I'll go as far as to say that this is a good example of why an engineer gets a lot of money. The type of installation is left up to the client. For example: I've inserted most toothpicks by "gently" inserting them into my small {7.2 volt} cordless drill and…
