Very cool

I just finished this model. It was a real challenge to put this one together. The rubber band assemblies were the most challenging. Trying to get the thicker bands through the holes and all the same length was very difficult. I had to use all of the available spare parts because I kept breaking the parts. But i finally got it. Other than that this model is fantastic. It runs great!!! Make sure you use plenty of wax on the moving parts. I love these Ugears models. The problem is which one should I do next. You guys are great. I love these models. Please keep up the good work.

Very cool

I really enjoyed putting this together. This was my first try at Ugears and I did break a couple parts that I was able to replace with a spare part except for one I was able to glue. If I didn’t show you you wouldn’t know. My only problem I can’t make it run. I guess a gear is not lined up and I am not going to take it apart to see. I will build another model and be more careful. I do think it is important to take your time building these. I was very impressed with how precise the parts fit together.

Very cool

My my first ugear model and not my last one! Quality is fantastic and instructions are quite clear. I only made a couple of mistakes but I could resolve them. There are some spare parts but I didn’t need to use any of them. It cost me 10h of work approx. It is recommended to use wax properly if you want your car to move, else there are too many friction. I had to put wax at the very end on the gears as if it was oil in a car. Quite funny. Only one comment, I don’t understand the purpose of the wheel with rubber on the left side, plus it is the only part that doesn’t hold well and I had to put some glue there.

Very very impressed. Instruction manual is clear, beautifully illustrated and straightforward to follow. All the parts were very precisely cut and fitted together easily, which I was surprised at, given similar kits in my experience need a bit of fettling to fit properly. Engine in particular has clearly benefitted from a lot of engineering thought, even down to different size inlet and exhaust ports, and is a real pleasure to see all the moving parts working together. In my experience the build time stated on the website is a bit optimistic, but the enjoyment is all in the build. Don't rush, pay very careful attention to all the illustrations in the build manual and enjoy. Am now building the Heavy Boy Truck!
