ROKR Wooden Puzzle Army Jeep

[@kevinrussell7317]

A real great tip. If you have a very delicate piece or those pieces that wrap around and very fragile. Use hot wax. Slides right in no need to apply pressure and risk breaking it

[@ralphtomaccio4640]

Great video with sufficient detail for those who haven’t built one of these, like me. My wife gave me one for Christmas and am about to start the assembly. The only thing I found annoying about this video was the music. When it stopped at about the 20 min. mark, it was very pleasant to watch. The music isn’t needed! Thanks!

[@kevinrussell7317]

Cannot stress enough USE WAX for small parts and tough fits. Avoids breaking parts when pushing in. Huge help when I started building these!

[@arlene2828]

My 10 year old son received this army keep for a Christmas present. I wish we had watched this video before we started building. He had broke both chassis’ and those are imperative to build. I’m off to buy a new kit, at least then we will have lots of extra pieces, but I’m going to build the chassis’s. Thanks for the help! 🇨🇦

[@Pozer714]

That's a cool model you don't see everyday! Sold Out! good for the company! They make good stuff. I love it!

[@Bent-rAgE-559]

ROKR makes really nice builds

[@edg1754]

That looked like a fun and relaxing build. And, the model itself looks great!

[@2H80vids]

Almost word perfect what I was about to comment. 👍👌

[@jeffhardick]

For a wooden model,it's decently detailed. Looks like a nice little relaxing build, that you can do in an afternoon. Something to kill a cold winter's day with.

[@brianhodgson2154]

Just build one over Christmas,very good kit

[@donaldswink6259]

Hi there, It was very satisfying watching you build this Jeep. I actually bought a truck that was made out of wood, it looks like an antique dump truck but you can buy many types of laser press wood models.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Thanks! I appreciate that!

[@munchkinmodelingman72GAM2]

that's one sweet build. Charlie Mac built a few of these last year and they were just as impressive .

[@coryheckler2354]

Cool kit!

[@tomphillips7858]

I’ve had their robot music machine in my collection for awhile, and it’s been on my build list, only to get bumped by other projects that pop up. Now I think I’ll get it done sometime soon, so I can justify buying this Jeep. That said, the BTTF DeLorean build had taken over my world...

[@rustythehusky5536]

Great little video

[@esuwarriormodelshop6369]

That looks amazing great detail with the wood

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Thanks 👍

[@esuwarriormodelshop6369]

The Midwest Model Shop I watched last night but would let me comment

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

@@esuwarriormodelshop6369 Yeah, so I uploaded the video. Everything was fine. Then suddenly the sound was super messed up in two spots. I had no idea what happened. Something messed up in the rendering process. I had to take it down and fix it.

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Nice kit. Just watched same video yesterday.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Thanks Charlie. After I posted that video I discovered that the finished product had a major audio problem that wasn’t there during the editing process. Something about rending the video messed it up and I could let it be like that. I spent all night and this morning figuring out how to fix it. It was really frustrating. But I’m glad you watched it twice!

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

@@TheMidwestModelShop you're welcome. Went to they're site they are out of stock.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Yeah I think they are slow at updating that. Because I asked about the train that was out of stock and they said they had them. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@usssaratogacv3lefevre978]

Pretty neat! Seen a few others, some ships.The ships are not all wood mostly the frames.

[@brianroberts5740]

Good review. I ordered a couple of these wood puzzle/model kits yesterday. The Monster Truck and the Locomotive and Tender. They should be here tomorrow. Really looking forward to building them. It's really amazing the level of detail that can be done in wood. There's a Grand Prix race car that has moving pistons and valves. I was wondering about build time.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Yes they are cool kits. I don’t know how long those kits would take to build. I can’t remember if I finished this jeep in one day or two? Hope you enjoy them!

[@bondroes]

Any recommended glue if the part is broken? My A12 part is broken but i saw 3 A12 and only need 2 . Is it a spare ?

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

I’m so sorry, it’s been well over a year since I built this kit. If it’s a wood piece, a little wood glue, and then a thin coat of CA glue over the joint should fix you up. Just be patient and let it dry for a day before installing it. I hope that helps!

[@pierre-marcrioux5015]

That is awesome! Thanks!

[@AviatorMark]

Very cool 😎 I like it!

[@stikeskrim]

AWESOME!!! 😃👍

[@stsavioursyouthbournemouth6566]

Where can I buy a motor like that?

[@NovaCaddoWolf]

It looks like a cool model, I actually just ordered one because of your video. However this model is actually not a jeep, it is a Soviet Gaz 67B field car, Russia's version of a jeep in 1944.

[@manicmatt7773]

Heads up. Skip to 3min.

[@ratbert69uk]

All sold out of everything!

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Don’t let that stop you from trying. I asked about a train that was sold out. I wanted to know how long it would be to get one. They replied that it was already back in stock. So they may be slow to update their inventory.

[@volvowagon70]

Nice GAZ 67 model.

[@maxwellmc9734]

Great tips

[@Incrediblebowlesmodels]

I know you got alot of awesome models lined up but you should take a look at the ryefield models 1041a1 matv in 1/35 scale it is awesome only matv with a detailed engine xmsn suspension cab it's a really fun build

[@Z09SS]

Soviet GAZ-67!

[@mister_crowley]

Does the model drive????

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

No

[@sergeyk8384]

Hello, when is the 1/200 Scale Missouri sequel?

[@michaelhutin5451]

These kits look really good, especially for someone like myself whom is a novice model maker. Are they available here in the UK?

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

I think so. This outfit is in China and I think a week went by from the time they said they would ship it, to it arriving here in the states.

[@Hybridchld]

The ship to Ireland, I have their Locomotive, so they'll ship to the UK.

[@slackjaw703]

Let’s press on. Too funny...

[@TheTruthCalls]

There are multiple companies making these types of kits. The first I was aware of was a company called UGears. I built their Hurdy-Gurdy about a year ago and was totally impressed with the quality of the kit and that it was fully functional.

[@regbiggs5261]

Can it be converted to a right hand drive.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

I don’t think so.

[@poochcom5638]

Ну что же... посмотрим, поглядим, соберём, проверим )))) так ли он хорош. Хотя некоторые косяки я заметил даже в видео... Большое усилие при установке отдельных мелких элементов, скрашивание слоёв фонеры. Надеюсь, что всё это лечится клеем )))

[@hadynthomas6197]

Dear Ben, long time no see. Great kit but why is there a Kalashnikov in the back of an American Jeep?

[@strikehold]

Not a US Jeep, it's a Soviet GAZ-67.

[@hadynthomas6197]

@@strikehold Then why is Ben calling it a Willys Jeep?

[@hadynthomas6197]

@@strikehold Sir, I bow to your knowledge. I just wikied it and it is indeed a GAZ - 67, so Ben was wrong to refer to it as a Willys jeep.

[@jackhabben887]

How is the mighty mo coming along?

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Not bad. I had hoped to have more done recently, but sometimes life really gets in the way of progress. Next video is about half finished.

[@kenhorne5650]

I like. Going to get the train.

[@GARGANTUA78-Y]

i broke it directly at 2nd step

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Oof

[@xiaoyanwu-k7h]

This is my birthday present and I a… think this is pretty hard😢

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Sorry to hear that. Use some thing strong to help pop the pieces together.

[@mikegayda715]

Might need wax on the parts where the springs are the fit is tight

[@SendoTube]

Hi nice build. :) I just uploaded video with Heavy truck .

[@GARGANTUA78-Y]

Im not patient like you are

[@jimelchek3811]

Gotta stop watching your channel. Each time you take on a build I end up telling myself "He makes it look so easy, I'll bet that I can do it!" First it was the Arizona, then the Missouri, now... My wallet opens up and its another project to enjoy. Its a good thing that you don't build houses, swimming pools, or nuke bombs.....

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Probably a good thing that I only have a KZbin channel for one of my hobbies 😉
