Do I need to cut parts out of the boards?
No, details are already pre-cut and you should just press them out of the board. They are connected with small crosspieces. If you have some difficulties to remove a detail, just cut a crossbar with a knife.
What are your advice on the assembly?
In order to avoid furrows, you should press the detail out from the side, where pattern of lines is thicker. We recommend to check all elements, especially gears, for the absence of burrs on the teeth. If you can not connect some details, to put a cap, for example, lubricate it with wax of any ordinary candles.
Is it possible to paint the model?
Yes, you can paint it. We recommend to use watercolor. You can use acrylic paints, but a thick layer can interfere with gears working.
What do I need to assemble a model? Tools?
Everything you need for the assembly comes in the package. There are wooden axis (standard toothpick 65 * 2 mm) in each set. Depending on the specific model, rubber bands, fishing line, or stickers will also be provided. Extra toothpicks are available at any grocery store. Tools recommended for the assembly: office knife, ordinary candle (i.e. tea candle), fine sand paper or file.
What to do if it's difficult to install a plug on the frame or an axle?
The plug or the axle will be much easier to install if you grease the parts with an ordinary candle. If you can't install the axle, it is recommended to disassemble the construction and grease the internal parts of a gear with a candle wax. Also, you can try different toothpicks as they also vary in thickness and sizes. Do not use too much force as there's a risk of breaking the toothpick.

Meet Ugears Flight Starter - perfect copy of old-time toy
Nowadays kid’s rooms are filled by millions of different toys. The technical progress is so fast that sometimes we can’t even catch up with new trends. Back in the old days our growth was without such selection of playthings.
Sometimes we want to turn back time and get those old-fashioned moments of our childhood. Remember how we made toys by ourselves? One of the most popular boys toy was a paper plane. It’s hard to find a person who doesn’t know how to do it. Unfortunately not always our paper-planes could make the right and long flight, but still they were fun to play.
And what about uniting something from the past with today’s trends in gaming? Don’t worry – you don’t need to think about it since Ugears already did it for you! They present you the mechanical 3d flight starter puzzle. It’s an unusual wood toy that creates a new flight game. It’s a launcher for light flying airplane models. The three of them are included into the set, but nothing can stop you to make as much as you want!
Time to use your imagination and start the flight
Actually here everything depends on your imagination. You can create any paper models of airplanes, shuttles, helicopters or spaceships and then use wooden flight starter to make the plane ride long and accurate. Just imagine due to a rubber band motor that creates tension to power your homemade models – they will be able to cover the distances over 30 feet!
DoEcoLiving always cares about your safety – so we pick up only the best eco-friendly toys for you. This wooden launcher is not an exception. The trigger has a protective castle, so you can actually lock it when you don’t need it.
Unite your child’s upbringing with something from your childhood and spend entertaining time together with Ugears models at DoEcoLiving!
