Description
In Nerdebutikken's wooden puzzle set series you will find this beautiful telescope. The set comes flat packed, and all you need is two or more hands, a desire to build and some patience. The sets are detailed and high quality.
The pieces are cut out with a precision laser. It makes the parts easy to push out, and the clever details mean you don't need glue to put the model together. The instructions are easy to follow and you just click or slide each part into place. But be careful - some of the parts can be small, and if you put pressure in the wrong place they can break.
Prepare to feel like a mastermind when you're done!
Speaking of the mastermind: Gallileo Gallilei was among the first to put two lenses one behind the other in a light-tight tube. It opened up a whole new world. Suddenly, human eyes were able to see things far away. Things that were impossible and unknown the year before. Galileo pointed his telescope at the stars, wrote down what he saw, and concluded that the earth could not be the centre of the universe.
The set consists of 314 parts that must be clicked together, and a stylish monocular telescope will emerge. Does it work? Of course! You adjust the distance between the two lenses to set the focus. Mount it on the stand, or hold it like a pirate. You may not discover any new planets with this telescope, but it is perfect for spying on your neighbour. It provides the sharpest image at a distance of around 150 metres.
The construction may be a little difficult for children. They should have adult supervision and help.
