Description
The ROKR Magic Cello (AMK63) is a laser-cut plywood mechanical 3D puzzle that builds into a self-playing cello‑style music box perched atop a book‑shaped base. When fully assembled and wound, the key turns the gear train to move the bow back and forth across the strings, while it plays Chopin’s “Nocturne in E‑flat, Op. 9 No. 2.” The hollowed wooden structure showcases the inner gears, lending both decorative appeal and interactive mechanical engagement.
Assembly comprises 199 precisely cut wooden pieces and takes approximately 4.5 hours to complete, with a moderate difficulty level suited to ages 14 and up. No glue or batteries are required for operation.
