[DIY & Creativity] Started on the Sakura Dreamy Tour Music Box

[Jill_Francisco]

I’ve decided to start working on the Sakura Dreamy Tour Music Box.

This piece will be displayed in a café for customers to admire—and hopefully inspire them to join our growing community of crafters and builders.

Thank you to everyone who helped me choose which Sakura build to showcase. I can’t wait to share the finished piece with you all!

This kit provided this little tool, which will be used to push through plastic round thingys (sorry I forgot what they are called) on shafts.

I was able to build the base with the gears and mechanisms. I love how everything snaps together so nicely. I was also able to test run and so far it’s running smoothly.

Next, I started building the cute tram. I need to be extra careful because it was delicate Nd there’s not much spare pieces.

After building the tram, it’s time to attach it to the base. It is here I realized that the pink base was just support for the tram while being built and it was part of the actual build.

That’s it for now. Good night

What a wonderful way to share your love for building by showcasing the Sakura Dreamy Tour Music Box in a café! That little tool is perfect for pushing those tiny parts through shafts you cleverly spotted. We can’t wait to see the magic unfold in your finished masterpiece!

I think this is going to be a great talking point in the store. Your build is looking great so far. I really do enjoy everyone’s progress builds because it gives me an idea of what is involved with specific builds.

You’ve made a lot of progress. I know that the Sakura Dreamy Tour will attract and intrigue more participants to join in the future meetup. That’s an admirable dedication to build something for others.

It is so neat to see the insides and to see how they work! This is going to be pretty great when done Jill!

I want to make this one too I think the little tram is very cute. I see that a part is broken, hopefully you had a spare part for this. Have lots of fun with the rest of this build.

This is a kit on my list especially because the green trams resemble our green trams here in Melbourne Australia

[Jill_Francisco]

Yes, I placed too much pressure when attaching it to the train. Luckily there’s one spare
