Information

      Atmospheric autumn lantern made of wood with enchanting forest and nature motifs: squirrel, small hedgehog, toadstool, pumpkin, acorns and autumn leaves as well as matching leaf motifs in the upper decorative turret. Perfect as an autumnal decoration for windowsill, table or entrance area - beautifully illuminated with an LED tea light. 

Equipped with a well-thought-out plug-in system and a practical sliding door at the front, which can be easily pulled out upwards to conveniently switch the light on and off. 

Autumnal motifs: squirrels, hedgehogs, mushrooms, pumpkin, acorns & leaves

Practical sliding door: front is inserted from above and can be pulled out by the handle flap (no gluing of the front necessary!)

Material: Optimized for 3.0 mm material thickness (plywood, MDF, HDF or acrylic)

Safety note: For fire protection reasons, please operate exclusively with LED tea lights or electric light chains! 

Note on the accuracy of fit (Kerf & Material): 

Wood is a natural product with natural strength fluctuations (e.g. 3 mm plates often fall out between 2.8 mm and 3.2 mm). In addition, each laser has a slightly different cutting gap (kerf). If the connectors are too tight or loose, adjust the cutting gap/offset in your laser program minimally, sand briefly with fine sandpaper if necessary or fix fixed parts with some wood glue.

Instruction

Step1: Quick assembly guide

Assemble the main body (3 solid walls & floor):

Insert the three side panels together via the finger pins and insert them firmly into the lower base plate (bottom).

Assemble the decorative turret:

Put the four small leaf side panels together with the small intermediate plate.

Insert the suspension loop from the inside through the opening of the small lid and place it on as a roof.

Attach the finished turret with its lower pins to the large upper roof slab.

Put on the roof & insert the sliding door:

Place the roof slab (including the turret) firmly on top of the carcass frame.

Push the front motif wall downwards from above through the front slot of the roof panel.

Important note:

The front must not be glued so that it can be easily pushed up the upper semicircular tab at any time! The remaining solid connections can be secured with a little wood glue for a permanent hold.
