How long does the kit take to build?
We recommend allowing two days to complete the frame and components.
What's different about the easy build kit compared to your other kits?
The easy build kit comes with pre-moulded connections rather than creating your own connections. So you just need to connect the bamboo into the connections.
What will I need at home to complete the build?
The frame can be constructed on any standard table or desk (1200mm x 600mm) you will need, sand paper, a hobby knife, masking tape and disposable gloves.
