1.  Start with a Clear Workspace
Creating a model as detailed as Trombone Player is easier in an organised workspace. Gather all parts, have the instructions handy, and keep small containers nearby to store tiny pieces while you work. A tidy space helps you focus and stay organised—something we always recommend here at Gaming Gibbon to make your building experience as smooth as possible!

2.  Read the Instructions Carefully
Before you dive in, take a few minutes to read through the entire instruction manual. This will give you an overview of the steps and help you identify key parts. At Gaming Gibbon, we suggest doing this “preview” to avoid surprises and ensure each step goes smoothly as you progress.

3.  Sanding for Smooth Movements
For any Timberkits model, a bit of light sanding makes a world of difference. By sanding gears, axles, and pivot points, you’ll create a smooth, precise motion for your trombone player. Fine-grit sandpaper works best, and focusing on these key areas will ensure your Trombone Player hits every note!

4.  Use Glue Sparingly for a Clean Look
When securing pieces with glue, remember that less is more. Using small amounts will give you a clean look without any mess. Gaming Gibbon recommends applying glue sparingly, especially on moving parts, to avoid any unwanted friction or stickiness that could hinder motion.

5.  Test Moving Parts Frequently
As you assemble the Trombone Player's arms and other moving components, test each piece to confirm it moves smoothly before gluing it into place. A quick test at each stage ensures everything is aligned and gives you the best final motion. At Gaming Gibbon, we always advise checking your work as you go for satisfying results!

6.  Embrace the Fun of Building!
Building the Trombone Player isn’t just about the end result; it’s about the joy of crafting each piece and watching it come together. Take your time, enjoy each stage, and don’t hesitate to add a personal touch if inspiration strikes! Gaming Gibbon stocks Timberkits because we love products that offer a hands-on creative experience—so savour every step of your build.
