Assembly Instructions

Assembling your 3D Crystal Puzzle requires patience and attention to detail. The pieces are designed to interlock precisely. There are no fixed rules for starting, but a common approach is to build from the base upwards or identify key structural pieces first.

1. Step 1: Unpack and Sort Pieces
   Carefully remove all pieces from the packaging. It is recommended to sort the pieces by shape or size if possible, though many pieces may appear similar. Identify any unique pieces that might form the core or base of the figure.

2. Step 2: Identify Interlocking Mechanisms
   Each piece has unique protrusions and indentations designed to fit together. Examine the pieces to understand how they connect. Some pieces may have small numbers or indicators to guide assembly, though this is not always the case.

3. Step 3: Begin Assembly
   Start connecting pieces, ensuring they fit snugly. Do not force pieces together, as this may cause damage. If a piece does not fit, try another orientation or a different piece. The puzzle builds up layer by layer to form the 3D shape.

Maintenance

To keep your 3D Crystal Puzzle looking its best:

• Cleaning: Gently wipe the puzzle with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the plastic.
• Handling: Handle the assembled puzzle with care to prevent pieces from detaching.
• Storage: If disassembling for storage, keep all pieces in a secure container to prevent loss.

Troubleshooting

Pieces do not fit:

• Ensure you are attempting to connect the correct pieces. Many pieces may look similar.
