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.

Amazing Earth model and space toys from Ugears
The 3d wooden Globus has 2 parts: the earth sphere and the stand. The Globus is attached to the stand by a central axis, which transmits to it a rotational motion from the main mechanism. And what’s even more exciting is that the axis of the mechanical Globus has the same inclination as the real axis of the Earth.
In addition there are two amazing models that are fixed to the main module - two interchangeable extra-modules - the Shuttle and the Sputnik – that are connected via the planetary gearing and rotate almost twice as fast as the globe and make almost two full spins in one pull of a winding lever.
