Immerse yourself in the world of our 3D Puzzles and browse through our carefully sculpted Robotimes. Succumb to the charm of three-dimensional assembly. Each model is an ode to creativity, combining aesthetics and engineering. Ideal for arousing curiosity and embellishing your home, it's the perfect present for young souls and mature minds alike.
A 3D wooden puzzle is a model kit cut by laser from thin plywood sheets: you press the numbered pieces out of the boards and slot them together, usually without glue, to build a vehicle, a landmark, an animal or a working mechanism. Piece counts run from 20 for a small animal to over 400 for an animated space shuttle. The result is both the pleasure of the build and an object to display.
🪵
From 10 to 14 upwards depending on the model. A wooden 3D puzzle is an evening or a weekend of quiet, precise work with a display piece at the end.
🎁
Parents, partners and colleagues looking for a present that becomes a hobby for a few hours and a shelf object for years.
🎻
A Big Ben, a biplane or a music box violin is craftsmanship you assemble yourself, with no glue and no paint required.
Piece count is the honest measure of difficulty. Under 100 pieces is an evening; 150 to 250 is a weekend; 400 and up is a project. The theme decides who it is for.

No glue or tools are needed for most models; a few suggest a drop of glue on stress points. Spare parts are available for Robotime and ROKR kits through our customer service.
The pieces are cut with a laser accurate to a tenth of a millimetre, which is why they hold by friction alone. Gears in the mechanical models are cut from the same sheets: the tooth profiles mesh well enough to run a marble lift or a music box movement.
