The media could not be loaded. Super adult build for Lego fans. Having built a number of increasingly expensive Lego car and architecture kits i was searching for a new challenge before coming upon this wooden printing press kit in Amazon. The price of $60 was a fraction of what I was paying for Legos. Don't get me wrong, Lego kits are great but expensive for the models I was interested in.I decided to take a chance and I'm really glad I did. The wooden parts are laser etched/pre-cut on several sheets. Unlike my experience with balsa wood model airplane kits from my youth, the wood is much thicker and pops out of the frame with some slight pressure. I used an exacto knife to assist the removal process on a very few small and intricate pieces but for these most part that was unnecessary. The instructions were good but not as good as Lego. Each step of the build was explained in a few words or in a diagram. I found it challenging but doable.The kit contains pretty much everything you need to complete the model, e.g., sand paper, a metric ruler, screw driver, wax, screws, etc. and none of the pieces were missing.. The manufacturer claims the printing press can be assembled in 5 hours but I find that hard to believe. Building took a lot of concentration and I would only spend an hour or two at a time so it took me much longer.Okay, the bottom line—A great wooden model build! It was fun, challenging and much less expensive than Legos. I highly recommend it and I'm already picking out my next wooden kit project.

This was quite the involved item to make but when completed, it was awesome. All the lights worked and all the mechanisms did what they were supposed to. Prints made on the provided card stock came out very good. I would highly recommend this.

I'd never done anything like this before, so when I saw the directions were good and I really enjoyed it, you can trust me. I've since bought 2 different kits from Rokr that I also really liked.

It's a really cool puzzle to put together. Lots of moving parts and gears, so lots of waxing. overall took about 10 hours to assemble. There were a few tedious and frustrating assembling parts, but I felt accomplished once I passed them. Some of the instructions could be clearer in the booklet, but they do provide videos to aid in assembly (I didn't watch them as I wanted separation from a screen). Overall, cool and fun.*Side note, make sure you have 2 AA batteries to throw in for the lights. Not needed for functionality, just cosmetics.

My teenage granddaughter absolutely loves this project. We gave this printing press to build for her birthday. She is in advanced and college prep classes in engineering and chemistry as she thinks she may want to go to college to be a chemical engineer. Assembling the press is challenging but fun for her. All the pieces fit and are sturdy, they do not break easily. The press is not complete yet but we are hoping it will be a thing of beauty as well as print beautifully. What she has completed so far looks fantastic.

This is my second Roku kit I’ve bought and built. The instructions are easy to understand and everything fits together great and looks really cool. I snapped a piece and love that they offer free replacement parts on their website with a $5 shipping cost.

The media could not be loaded. Having a lot of extra parts makes me nervous that I missed something, But it's also good in case you break a piece. they were well cut and I didn't end up breaking anything. I love that It comes with more than just letters, so you can really make a lot of cool stuff. I'm very happy with it

my son wanted this but i ended up having to help him with most of it. some parts he did himself but ultimately i needed to help. lots of small parts and took much longer than the 5 hours it says it takes. after it was done it was actually a rewarding experience. MY ONLY SUGGESTION IS THERE ARE 4 GOLD SCREWS THAT GO WHERE THE INK PAD FLIPS ....MAKE SURE TO SCREW THEM IN ALL THE WAY SO THEY DO NOT RIP THRU THE CARDBOARD.
