Most Fun
My son has enjoyed working with wood on this equipment. He has already made several things. Right now he is working on a candle stick holder. He is easily able to change out the different parts and work them. He has enjoyed it so much that he played with it first and never asked to play his WII games he got for Christmas until the next day. They only thing I would like to see changed is that it would be made out of some kind of metal vs the heavy plastic considering the price of the equipment. Also if it was made out the metal it would last longer.

Not recommended unless it's for small children
My son is 13 and loves using the tools in tech class so I bought this for Xmas. Unfortunately the blades are not sharp at all. Maybe it's more geared towards the 4+ age group rather than a teenager. I will be returning it

Grrreat!
My 7yr old grandson is always wanting to help his dad with projects. When he opened it his mouth just dropped open. The next day Alex, my son-in-law and my husband were all downstairs checking it out. He loved it and was able to use it with guidance. My son-in-law was quite impressed. Thank you Mindware for a quality project at a reasonable price. Anita
