## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They say it all works
*by A***R on 7 January 2023*

All joints nice and tight

### ⭐⭐⭐ Toothpicks don't fit at all!
*by V***E on 28 January 2021*

I dont often review, however I have built alot of these wooden gear models (mainly by ugears) and as much as the end result of this is okay it has alot if flaws.The wood trick models for some reason are higher priced than many others but do not be tricked into thinking this means better quality, I found the wood in this model to split easier, have alot of burrs when removing pieces and my biggest issue is that none of the toothpicks provided where usable (i used spares from other sets)It is alot smaller than I imagined, it works fine but certain parts don't feel of great design, for £50 I feel ripped off by wood trick and will not be buying there models again

### ⭐ dry elastic bands
*by K***Y on 22 September 2023*

Unfortunately, the elastic bands supplied in this kit are dry and cracking. When placed under tension they snap. This means I can not complete the build until I find replacement bands. I have contacted the company Wood Trick via their website. They promise to resolve issues within 24 hours. No reply after 3 days!!EDIT: I've now contacted them three times in a week, no response AT ALL so far. I will update this review if/when I do get this sorted out.EDIT 2: I've had a response from Wood Trick, and they have shipped out, and I've now received replacement bands. Will update once more when I've tried them in the build.EDIT 3: No good I'm afraid. As I had problems with the original set of bands. The friction fit of the dashboard would no longer hold. This caused issues later in the build when it came time to fit the roof and windscreen. Ultimately the subframe snapped from repeated attempts to get the dashboard sitting properly. The whole thing has gone in the Bin.
