Awesome sauce
Yeah the instructions aren’t great, but I put together this coaster in five hours and it worked on the first time. Not for kids under 12.

Bought to be a gift for a nephew, looks like it will keep him (and maybe Dad) busy for quite a while.

Challenging to put together but my 7yo, 10yo and I managed it over two days. Took each of us to figure out certain parts because the instructions aren’t always clear and the connectors often need to be in a very specific way (directions don’t indicate that). But we got it together and it works great! The challenge of having to figure it out on our own at times didn’t necessarily take away from the fun. It helped to build confidence. Definitely not for young children.
Challenge
My guess is that even a 10 or 12 year old would find this difficult to build. Challenging for an adult,actually. Once I determined what they consider the front view to be the left side view and what they consider to be the left side view to actually be the back of the coaster, the directions become way easier. A lot of tweaking to get the chain from getting stuck. But it works great. I wish I could post a video. Patience definitely required.
