THE BUILD
247 pieces. No glue.
Hours well spent
A four-stage gearbox and a real differential, built by hand.
It doesn't go in a drawer
Front wing, rear spoiler and an exposed engine. Built to be seen.
Build it. Then put it to work.
Wind the key, press the driver's helmet and it takes off, engine sound and all.
And that’s only half the story.
Why it beats the usual gift
The safe choice gets the job done. The right one feels like you actually know him.
| The usual gift | TheWoodGiant |
|---|---|
| Opened in four seconds | An evening of real mechanical building |
| Another screen, another charger | Spring-powered. No screen, no batteries |
| Nothing to actually do with it | Laps around the living room, again and again |
| In a drawer by January | Looks fast even parked on the shelf |
| "I didn't know what to get you" | "You clearly thought about this" |

Features
How it's made
High-tech laser cutting minimizes the cutting burr, smooths the edges and ensures the accuracy of the pieces, making it easier to assemble the build.
Made of natural, lightweight, and non-toxic material.
Multi-layered wood sheets are durable during and after building.
FAQs
How hard is it to build?
Every model is a press-fit build with illustrated step-by-step instructions, so no experience is needed. Build times run from about two to five hours depending on the model. Recommended for ages 14+, or younger builders with an adult.
Does it actually fire? What’s included?
Yes. Once built, it fires rubber bands at the included targets. Rubber bands and targets are already in the box, so you won’t need to buy them separately.
Do I need glue, tools or anything else?
No glue, no tools. Every piece press-fits by hand. The only extra is a touch of wax on the moving parts, and a candle stub or petroleum jelly works perfectly.
What if a piece is missing or breaks?
No worries. If a piece is missing or breaks during the build, just email us and we’ll send you the replacement part free of charge.
What if I get stuck during the build?
We’re here to help. Just email us at info@thewoodgiant.com with the step or piece you’re having trouble with and our support team will help you through it.
When will it arrive?
Orders ship from the U.S. and typically arrive within 2–7 business days. Shipping is free, and you’ll receive a tracking number as soon as your order ships.
