|---|---|---|
| Pieces do not fit together easily. | Excess material or tight fit. | Apply gentle, firm pressure. If still too tight, lightly sand the connecting edges. Ensure correct orientation of pieces. |
| A piece breaks during assembly. | Excessive force or fragile piece. | Use a small amount of wood glue to reattach the broken piece. Allow sufficient drying time. Some kits may include extra small pieces. |
| Assembled flower is unstable. | Pieces not fully engaged or base not secure. | Press all connecting points firmly to ensure full engagement. Verify the pot base is correctly assembled and stable on a flat surface. |
