Awesome kit!
I had a lot of fun putting this kit together! The instructions were very detailed and easy to follow. I also bought the Aethercore kit to go with this one. They work flawlessly together! I highly recommend!

Both Mecrob models I have completed have been delightful experiences. The packaging and parts are well organized, labeled and accurate. The instructions are very well done and easy to follow. The advanced models do require some adjustments to complicated sections and a bit of fidgeting with movements but overall both assemblies have gone to plan.

Very cool build. I've worked with a variety of materials in model making; plastic, wood, sheet metal and paper. This is a nice change, working with metal mechanical parts and leather. My only complaint is that the manual images and text could be larger and easier on the eyes. Most of the work is just assembling nuts and bolts and other hardware onto screws and shafts, but it is rewarding in its own way. Aetherwings is truly a work of art. The blend of brass, other metals, wood and leather in a steampunk style is fantastic. It is beautiful and fun to just look at. The awesome ribbing on the leather wings is one example of the artistic detail on this model. The movements of the gears, struts and wings add to the visual impact. I had no missing parts in my kit, a little surprising given the many bags of tiny parts. Mecrob was very diligent in producing a quality kit. I needed a replacement wing because I accidentally damaged it and the customer service was very responsive, got a replacement at a reasonable price in a little over a week. This model stands very well on its own but I am looking forward to building the Aethercore and combining the two. Hats off to Mecrob . Totally worth the price. If you are looking for something different to build I highly recommend this kit.

Awesome Machine!
I've been building models and miniatures for over 50 years and I have to say this was the most fun, most challenging, and most satisfying one I've made yet. The pieces are precision and the instructions have excellent diagrams making this a superb miniature piece of engineering. I love watching and listening to it operate. I'll be getting Aetherwings to ad to it soon.
