Frequently Asked Questions
Can I set it up without any experience?
This set is rated Level 4 out of 5 (for craft enthusiasts). The 204 pieces are manageable, and the illustrated instructions guide you step by step. Plan on spending about five to nine hours on it—feel free to spread it out over several evenings.
What do I need to set it up?
The lighting requires two AAA batteries, which you’ll need to provide yourself. Tweezers and a sanding stick are included in the set. For the small parts, we recommend our Magic Craft Glue: It dries crystal clear, provides a strong hold, and adheres well to acrylic and plastic. This ensures there are no visible glue residues.
How big is it, and will it fit on the shelf?
When assembled, it measures about 11 x 18 x 24 cm, so the longest side is 24 cm. It’s designed to sit between your books and serve as a bookend at the same time. In photos, scenes like this usually look bigger than they actually are.
Who would this make a good gift for?
It's recommended for ages 14 and up. It's a good fit for people who are interested in astronomy and enjoy working with their hands—perhaps as a birthday or Christmas gift. If you don't like crafts, you won't get much out of it.
Does this set come with tools as well?
Yes, as an astronomy craft kit: With the Starter Kit version, you get the same kit plus our tool kit, which includes a file, ruler, mini hammer, utility knife, and stainless steel glue tips. This really makes a difference, especially when working on the fine details. If you already have these tools, this kit is all you need.
What if I get stuck while setting it up?
Along with the illustrated instructions, there's an assembly video where you can follow along step by step. If you're still having trouble, please contact our team in Berlin. And if the set doesn't fit after all, you have a 100-day return policy.
