If you haven't built one before, the Standbeest kit looks a little bewildering, but there are a couple of factors in your favor. First, the instructions that come with the kit are absolutely first-rate; the illustrations are excellent, and the text is written in very clear English. Second, while it seems like a lot of parts, you're really just making the same leg sub-assembly twelve times. These sub-assemblies are then built up into a pair of half-frames. It's really a pretty easy and rather fun project.
