Rotating Earth Globe model.

Detailed construction manual included containing step-by-step illustrated instructions. Everything in the kit is clearly marked and labeled so that it can be assembled easily. Some parts are intricate and fragile, so great care must be taken assembling the model.

Made from natural wood, laser cut with smooth edges. A small sanding board is included to smooth burs and sharp edges, and to ease very tight fits. No glue is required nor provided, but if the model is going to be handled, judicious application of a few drops of glue on some exposed parts will secure them.

The globe rotates when the turning gear is rotated using all wood gears and drive shafts - ingenious engineering!

Great gift and collector's item. Finished model stands nearly 1 foot tall.

It is not designed for repeated disassembly - it is a model to be assembled for display and exploring.
