👍 [Pro Tips] What I Learned After My First Two Robotime Builds

After completing my first two Robotime builds, I’ve learned a few things that I think could help new builders.

One big lesson for me was the importance of paying attention to fit and not rushing steps. Taking short breaks helped keep my hands from getting tired, especially during tighter assemblies. I also learned that reading a step fully before starting makes a big difference.

These builds helped me understand what kind of kits I personally enjoy and how to approach future projects with more patience and confidence. I look forward to building more kits next month. They should be coming in the mail soon.

I make sure I have all the parts ready to go before each step. Your definitely right that reading ahead and taking it slowly is the best.

Thank you for the helpful tips. :blush: Your kits are beautiful and yes, it’s very helpful to look at the instruction first because sometimes, we are mistakenly fit the pieces that are really not for each other.
