very cool - a lot of funFirst time making one was a shear pleasure. Fun to make and very easy. Looks very cool (used Red Heart).




Love the quality of the KaleidoscopeThe instructions were simple and working with the pieces were easy. The glass was well protected easy to handle with out having to re-clean. The quality is excellent. I recommend others to get this item. It's easy to put together even if it's your first time making an eggoscope kaleidoscope.




EggoscopesI found the eggoscopes very easy to assemble. The kids just love them and show them to all their friends. I hope to make a few sales soon. They are just fascinating because they are different every time. I would like to know more about painting them. The kids just love them even unfinished but I love to try new things.




Eggoscope KitThese are nifty little kaleidoscopes with a fine gold finish. The most difficult part of assembling the eggoscope kit in the egg was getting the protective plastic film off the lenses. I finished six of them and ordered six more. I selected a variety of hardwoods for the wooden eggs which I polished to a high luster. I plan to give them away as Easter gifts.




Fun to make!They where mush easier to use than I thought they would be. I also liked PSI brand much better than the other brands that I have used. Everyone loves them. They say it take them back to there childhood.




kaleidoscope kitsNice kits, easy to make and assemble. The color "jewels" are a bit cheesy in my opinion




craftsI've never had a problem with these kits. The only problem that may arise is if you cut your blank too short. It really does have to be exactly 2 1/4 ".




Eggoscope for giftsGetting ready for Christmas and these make perfect gifts for anyone and look great.
