A fun little project! With a little time and patience, you can get some substantial sparks jumping across. I would have given 5 stars if some of the instructions were a little clearer, but with some thought this can be overcome. Great project for those who are interested in science.

I knew the item needed to be assembled, but I had no idea it was so many tiny pieces to deal with, and the instructions don't even have pictures!

Instructions excellent. Worked perfectly. Only weakness is the handle which I have replaced with a metal one.

Ce kit demandera des heures de montage, et je n'ai pas la notice en fran??ais.
L'essentiel est en carton. Je suis assez d???u.

If I had known it was CARDBOARD I would never have ordered the thing. I am very dissapointed with it.

Excellent. Saw the original in the british science machine and have a long standing memory of wanting to build this...now i can.

The instuctions are hard to follow and I am having trouble putting it together. It's very cool though. Gets your mind moving.

It was a present, but I'm sure he liked it.

The kit was of excellent quality and the instructions brilliant. Whoever translated them from the German is a true linguist.
The machine is complete and working well although I did have one or two problems.
Firstly, I didn't realise there was protective film on both sides of the transverse bar until afer I had glued on the card disc. But the disc stayed in place with the film stripped off around it.
There was a more significant problem with glueing the large discs onto the two hubs. Despite u.

I'm part-way through the construction of this kit. Good may become excellent if it actually works!

Waiting to hear from the recipient whether it is working well or not. He was pleased with it as a kit, anyway.

The installation instructions are incomplete, garbled, and the assembly is very difficult. The parts to be assembled are not numbered. Generally grand-illusions is very keen to the assembly instructions but this time the feedback is totally negative. Sorry about that.
