I thought of building such a balsa wood kit for quite a while already, when i saw it yesterday in a shop i could not resist anymore and boought it. It took me only two hours to assemble the model. The parts are very accurate, no problems occured, although the application of the planking is quite tedious. A true joy to assemble it! It was also a great relief to work with other material than plastic for a change. It won´t be the last da Vinci machine i will build!
