Assembly Instructions

This 3D puzzle consists of 50 pieces made of high-quality paper and EPS foam board. No additional tools or glue are required. Each piece is numbered, and assembly should be done step-by-step according to the instructions. The estimated assembly time is 100-120 minutes.

General Assembly Tips:

• Do not pop out all pieces at once. Detach pieces as needed for each step to avoid confusion.
• Punch out all holes before assembly. Use the provided poke tool for this.
• Exercise patience. Do not force pieces together, as this may damage the product.

Step-by-Step Assembly Guide:

Refer to the video below for a visual guide to the assembly process. Each step description corresponds to a segment of the video.

1. Prepare the Base: Begin by identifying and carefully popping out piece 5, which forms the main base of the Great Wall. Use the poke tool to punch out all designated holes on this piece.
2. Assemble the First Tower: Locate pieces 29 and 22. Punch out the holes on piece 22, then fold it to form the tower structure. Insert piece 29 into piece 22 to complete the tower.
3. Attach Tower to Base: Carefully insert the assembled tower into the corresponding slots on piece 5.
4. Construct Tower Roof: Find pieces 27 and 28. Fold and occlude piece 27, then punch out holes on piece 28. Fold and insert piece 28 into piece 27 to create the roof. Insert this roof onto the top of piece 29.
5. Assemble First Wall Segment: Pop out pieces 6 and 15. Punch out holes on piece 6 and fold the edges of piece 15. Insert piece 6 into piece 15 to form a wall segment. Insert this segment into piece 5, connecting it to the first tower.
6. Assemble Second Wall Segment: Find and pop out pieces 14 and 26. Punch out holes on piece 14. Insert piece 26 into piece 14 to create another wall segment. Insert this segment into piece 5.
7. Assemble Third Wall Segment: Locate pieces 23 and 30. Punch out holes on piece 23, fold its edges, and insert piece 30. Insert this completed wall segment into piece 5.
8. Duplicate Structures: Repeat the steps for assembling towers and wall segments to create additional sections of the Great Wall. The video demonstrates creating a duplicate of the initial tower and wall structure (referred to as structure A).
9. Connect Sections: Insert piece 2 into the bottom of the main base (piece 5) to secure the initial sections.
10. Assemble Additional Wall Sections: Pop out pieces 12 and 25. Punch out holes on piece 12, fold it, and insert piece 25. Insert this into piece 5. Repeat for pieces 13 and 24, inserting them into piece 5.
11. Create Central Tower: Pop out pieces 16, 17, and 18. Punch out all holes. Insert piece 18 into pieces 16 and 17 to form a central tower structure. Insert this into the main base, connecting the wall sections.
12. Final Tower Assembly: Pop out pieces 9 and 11. Punch out all holes. Fold pieces 9 and 11, then insert piece 11 into piece 9 to form a smaller tower. Insert this into piece 10 (if applicable, or directly into the main structure as shown in the video).
13. Complete the Structure: Continue assembling and connecting all remaining pieces, following the numbered instructions and the visual guide in the video, until the entire Great Wall model is complete.
