Product Information
Full details
This Quay Horse Riding Pen Holder Woodcraft Construction Kit is designed for hobbyists and crafters looking for a rewarding assembly project that results in a functional and decorative desk accessory. The key benefit is its easy, no-glue assembly and the satisfaction of building a 3D model from pre-cut FSC certified wood pieces. A potential caveat is that while the pieces slot together easily, painting or varnishing requires additional materials and care.

FAQs
Does this kit require glue?

What are the dimensions of the finished model?
The completed model measures approximately H18 x L22 x W12 cm.
What age is this product recommended for?

Can the model be painted?

What does FSC certified mean?
FSC certification means the wood used comes from responsibly managed forests that protect biodiversity and the rights of forest workers and local communities.
How long does assembly typically take?
Assembly time can vary, but typically ranges from 1 to 3 hours, depending on individual building speed and experience.
What if I lose a piece?
Contact the manufacturer directly for potential replacement parts, although this is often not possible for individual small components.
Troubleshooting
Pieces are difficult to push out
Gently use a craft knife or the edge of another piece to help loosen the connection points before pressing them out. Avoid excessive force.
Pieces do not fit together snugly
Double-check the piece numbers and orientation against the instructions. Ensure no debris is preventing a proper fit. If a slot is too tight, a very fine-grit sandpaper can be used to gently smooth the edge.
Model feels wobbly after assembly
Ensure all pieces are fully inserted into their slots. Re-examine the assembly sequence to confirm all connections are correctly made and pieces are fully seated.
Paint or varnish is causing wood to warp
Ensure you are using thin coats of paint or varnish and allowing each layer to dry completely before applying the next. Avoid saturating the wood.
