A little patience = have fun!

I am building this model and so far I like it. I don't think this is a difficult set, but it does require you to take your time, pay attention and be patient. As a kid I loved building houses and models out of cardboard and it's a similar experience but of course it requires working with wood and wire materials. The kit included all the materials sorted into different bags for easy part identification. Nothing is missing. The instructions are purely graphic, without words, so you really have to pay attention to what is displayed. Some suggestions I would like to make to potential buyers of this model: 1) Buy a ruler that clearly shows millimeters. (I bought a set of 2 metric/standard pieces here at Revain for less than $6, it works great) 2) Consider omitting the included glue (which is good, but not great) in favor of a quick-drying, craft glue 3) Also have a small tube of superglue handy - you'll probably need it to glue the pieces of wire together 4) Don't be afraid to overdo it and improvise a bit. (e.g. some furniture decals just didn't create the look I was happy with, so I pulled out my collection of water-based acrylic paints and let my "inner hippie" run free instead!) This model is not something It'll take you a few hours to pull it off, but it's a fun, relaxing, and rewarding project! Update: done - with a few modifications of my own (I'm not a very "pink" person!) Photo below.
