[DIY & Creativity] (Non-Rolife Kit) Walking Castle 🏰

Sharing one of my non-Rolife builds: the Tonecheer Walking Castle! :castle:

I’m about 13 hours into this build and honestly, it has been so hard to put down. This kit is definitely challenging, with so many tiny little parts that really test your patience, but in the best way.

Surprisingly, the gears were one of the easier parts to put together. The wood pieces are mostly harder and sturdier, so I had less issues with breaking compared to some other kits, but they are also much sharper. I definitely got a few tiny cuts along the way, so finger cots helped a lot. While the the joints are very flush, I have been using my hammer to get them together… caused some breakage that super glue could fix

It’s one of those builds where you tell yourself “just one more step” and suddenly another hour has passed. I’m excited to see how it all comes together, especially with the walking mechanism.


Has anyone else gonna try this kit?

This build looks so cool! It kinda reminds me of the house from Encanto if it could fly.
