The most frequently asked questions & answers (FAQs)
If you can't find the answer to your question, please contact our customer service team at
This information is included with every model. The age range goes from 6 to 16 years and up. Sets for ages 6 to 10 feature larger pieces and fewer steps and are designed to be built together with an adult. Starting at age 12, most children can follow the instructions on their own.
Most kits can be assembled without glue. Any tools required are included. For larger projects, there are also matching tools and accessories available.
From about two hours for small sets to several evenings for models with several hundred pieces. The estimated build time is listed for each product and can also be filtered.
The line between the two is blurred. We refer to three-dimensional snap-together models without moving parts as “3D puzzles,” and to anything that is assembled as a “model kit”—including models with gears or moving parts. This page features both.
In that case, we'll send you a replacement free of charge. Just contact customer service with your order number and a photo.

Which wooden building set is right for which age group?
A wooden kit isn't a toy that you just unpack and put away. It's a project: an afternoon or a whole weekend spent at the kitchen table, turning laser-cut wooden panels into something that will eventually find a home on a shelf. That's exactly why it works for adults and children alike—it doesn't require any prior knowledge, just time and a little patience.
Each product includes a recommended age range and a difficulty level from Level 1 to Level 5. You can use the filters to narrow down your search based on both criteria right away, instead of clicking through the entire product lineup.
- Ages 6 to 10 – a manageable number of pieces, large components, designed for building together with an adult.
- Ages 12 and up —most models. Children this age can usually follow the instructions on their own.
- Ages 16 and up —many small parts, intricate mechanics, and a longer build time. Models for adults who are willing to take their time.
If this is your first time building a model together, the beginner kits are the perfect place to start. For projects that will keep the whole family busy over several evenings, we've put together our family projects.
Building Together Instead of Sitting Side by Side
The real appeal isn't in the finished model, but in the hours leading up to it. A model kit gives a family something to work on together: one person sorts the parts, another reads the instructions, and another puts it all together. No screens, no notifications, no time limits—and in the end, there's something on the table that wasn't there before.
It makes a particularly great gift. A wooden building set isn't something you unwrap and forget about in five minutes; instead, it keeps the recipient busy for weeks.
What's Inside the Box
The parts are laser-cut from thin plywood and are embedded in backing sheets, from which you can pop them out one by one. The kit also includes illustrated instructions that guide you step by step through the assembly process. In most cases, you won’t need any tools—but if you do, they’re included.
Wooden construction set, 3D puzzle, or mechanical model?
These terms are often used interchangeably in everyday language, but they mean different things. If you’re specifically looking for three-dimensional snap-together models, you’ll find what you’re looking for more quickly under “3D Puzzles.” Kits with working mechanisms—gears, springs, and drive systems—are listed under “Mechanical Wooden Models.” This page brings both together and is intended for anyone who has one main question: What can we build together?
Wood Instead of Plastic
All models are made of wood, not plastic. You can tell this by the feel of the wood as you build, and then by the way it looks: A finished wooden model fits right into a living room, whereas a plastic model rarely does. Many models can also be painted or stained after they’re built.
