Nuoshanzs Bumblebee 3D Metal Model Kit is a small steampunk bumblebee built from laser-cut steel plates and brass gears, sized as a desk sculpture.

Why it is listed here

It is a short metal build, with a listed 2-5 hours against the much longer sessions larger metal kits ask for. The mix of steel plates and brass gears gives the finished insect a two-tone mechanical look. The listing rates it as intermediate, so it can work as a step up from a first metal kit without a big time commitment.

What the build involves

The listing says the tools and instructions are in the box, so no extra kit should be needed. Work on a tray, since a model this size means small parts. Keep it on a desk or shelf out of reach of younger children, as the kit is listed for ages 15 and up.
