What Makes It Uncommon

Once upon a time, deep in the forest (or just deep in your house), an intricate wonder began to take shape, one that ticked, chimed, glowed, and even told time in a charming old-fashioned way. Sounds cuckoo? Well, it should. This DIY beauty features over 400 wooden pieces that come together to create a real, fully functioning cuckoo clock. The imaginative design evokes the craftsmanship of traditional German clockmaking, with enchanting touches inspired by Lewis Carroll's classic Alice in Wonderland. For lovers of puzzles, nostalgia, and fairy-tale architecture, this extraordinary kit is a magical escape that comes to life one piece at a time.

  • Quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping.

  • Powered by three AAA batteries or USB-C cable (not included).
  • Build time averages six hours.

I have done several book nooks with light electrical work. I thought they were all pretty simple and not as challenging as I had hoped. This one really is advanced! It starts off with making and testing all the electrical components. Lots of small parts and definitely needed to pay attention. I do wish the instructions had more words.

Extremely Complicated

We wanted to love this but there were few reasons why we didn't. #1 The print on the directions was so small it was hard to read. #2 The are too many small pieces that are difficult to work with. #3 Don' think this is suitable for a 14-year-old,

Amazing Fairy-Tale Clock!

This cuckoo clock puzzle is amazing! It's made from high quality materials, absolutely stunning in appearance, and fun to build. It's also a great way to keep my husband busy! This clock puzzle is easy to put together and features excellent details. It truly belongs in an enchanted forest! However, please note: it only chimes 3x no matter the hour. If that doesn't bother you, then buy one for yourself and for all of your friends!

Cuckoo Cuckoo

I recently build this DIY cuckoo clock and overall it is an enjoyable project. The kit arrived will package, everything is label. You need a tweezer the screws are small. The assembly took me two days because of my work schedule and of course my children. Once assembled, the clock looks fantastic—simple, modern, and surprisingly sturdy. The ticking is quiet, and so far it has been keeping accurate time. I especially liked that the kit didn't require specialized tools beyond a small screwdriver and tweezer. Overall, I'd recommend this DIY clock to hobbyists or anyone looking for a relaxing weekend craft. It's rewarding, looks great on a desk, and makes a nice handmade gift.
